Which really means 30rwhp, 40rwhp, and 50rwhp. A cai, exhaust, pullies, etc. are great begginer mods, but don't expect to blow anybody away with them. Get gears and a t-lok for a nice boost of accelleration, or get a power pack for better rwhp and much better accelleration, or you could always use a 75lb shot of N2O.

+1 on the powerpacks. I personally am wanting to get a new 3.8 from them with a powerpack. With that combo, you would have an extremely tough and powerful engine ready to go. Throw on some type of F/I and your gold!!

Yea it will work. Nitrous is very safe, but don't overdo it, and don't let just anybody tune the car, with a good tune, and a proper shot for the engine (I recommend a 75lb shot on stock engines 100 maximum) it's 100% safe.
