F/i is ok for a DD if tuned correctly. Would highly recommend you get an i/c to go with it if you have the money to go the f/i route. Gears would be a cheaper and quick fix for ya. (4.10 gears for n/a and 3.73 gears for f/i) Welcome and good luck.

nitrous is the cheapest way to go. ( I also have a kit for sale i havent even used yet). I bought nitrous and then found a good deal on a V1 and i scooped it up. You will notice a big difference with just gears as stated above

A tuner and some 4.10 gears is always a good place to start

What tires are you running?
What upgrades have you done to your brakes?
What suspension mods have you done?

Going fast, means you WILL need to slow down and turn. Increasing the speed of ones ride should be #4 on the list of mods

Bahhh who needs to stop or turn... all motor baby! In all seriousness though very true, you'll never see any of my cars get significant engine mods without the proper braking and handling mods. I usually go overkill on the brakes and suspension, then play with the drivetrain.
