Well Im going to school up in Oklahoma at OSU but my real home is in Dallas...actually a suburb colleyville if you know the area. CAI with a K&N is going to be my first under the hood investment after that....the SSM HiPo performance pack looks really interesting, anyone know how to get it done cheaper? Also what chip should I get and should I wait for thie chip until the bulk of my bolt ons are bolted on?

Hawks05, Why do you say to stay away from Diablo? Im asking because Im considering chipping mine and Im interested in Diablo. Do you suggest an alternative? Just curious.

Well Im pretty much up in Stillwater, Oklahoma permanetly now so the drive to Plano is a bit of a hike, but thanks for the hook up. Well I'm seriously going to get my sixer up to par with a GT so everyone give me some advice....I've got about a 2 grand budget if that helps, if its a little more i can stretch it out some but yall use 2000 as a budget.

well if you want to get all this power into your 6er you are going to have to get a new rear end and definitly consider getting better brakes i would suggest cobra breaks...cuz you gonna need a more powerful breaking system to stop your fast a$$ car.
