Thanks in advanced for any help

5-speed or auto ?

gears and tires will knock 10 cars off if you do it right (about a second in the 1/4)

right = 4.10's and mickey thompsons

after that a bit of suspension will help, like hpm mega bite jr lca's

dimebag

spray?

corners

Heads and headers. Then if you want to get serious, go forced induction (supercharger or turbo). I LOVE boost. Every car should have it (IMHO) .

The new Civic SI's are surprisingly fast-ish for what they are and they can/will beat stock 5.0's. As stated above: Fix the clutch, get some good tires, gears. That will put you at a good advantage against the Civic. If you wanna blow his f*ckin doors off, along with what I said before, get: Longtube headers, O/R midpipe, catback, Trick Flow Intake, JLT CAI, and port your heads.. All he'll see is your tail-lights..

heres my 2 cents. h/c/i on the CHEAP can get you to the 270ish mark VERY easily. Gt40 heads, roller rockers, b303 cam is a very good setup, or the tfs1 cam if you would like. With those simple basic bolt ons, you will be able to take A LOT of cars on the road today, even if you are an automatic as am i.

Gears and Tires and a GOOD clutch. one all of that is done you never have to re-address it. plus you will set yourself apart form lots of "stockers"and nearly all four bangers.
