$2000 what to do

RE: $2000 what to do
Don't waste your money on the Throttle Body Spacer (total junk) and don't get a throttle body yet as they will not do a damn thing for you until you start packing some serious hp. I say get the U/D pulleys, won't help that much in the accelleration department, but they do help mpg out a little. Now go get some 3.73 or 4.10 gears, look through the forum, there is like 10billion post about them, and get a detroit true track. They won't add any hp, but the gains in accelleration will be very noticilble. Then after that I say go get a V6 x or h pipe (also read throgh the forums on this) and a set of GT catbacks. If you have enough money left a 75lb shot of N2O wouldn't be a bad idea either.

just do the UDP, Exhaust...X-pipe and some nice mufflers from Summit, and those 4.10 or 3.73 Gears.
get Rims/tires, chin spolier(and some do grille delete), and bumper inserts.
paint the interior plastic parts too, its fun and dresses it up alot!!!
that's what i'd do,
GL in shopping have fun!!
edit: and get rid of the side molding...if it's still on...thats priority numero uno!!!

screw appearance mods.
Vortech blower for $1450 and more than enough money left over for gears if he saves another $200
$2200 he can have 260rwhp. $2000 he can blow his money on appearacne mods and still be slow.
i say Vortech

pypes Xpipe and slp LMII gt catback will work.
just get the blower for now before it's sold. it wont last long at $1450. i'd buy it right now if i had the extra money and resell it around my area for $2000
