I wish I had the $1100 right now, well I do, but I'm not touching that. I'd get all the parts for my heads, have them rebuilt and ported,then install everything.

would you rather BE fast or LOOK fast? if you want to LOOK fast, get some bigger, heavier, bling-bling rims. if you want to be a bit faster, i'd go for the gears or a nitrous kit with all the bells and whistles.

Fast will come with time. Just also ordered a tri-ax and intake spacer. But i am getting a new set of 2001 cobra R's from a co-worker for $250. Anything's better than those ugly stock rims.

i found that most people that concentrate on visual mods first, generally don't do much more than an intake and exhaust, and MAYBE pulleys. that's why i like concentrating on go-fast parts first. my car LOOKS stock, but is far from it.

there's also the people that say they'd rather concentrate on suspension first too. which is even more humorous cause a lot of people that say that are nearly stock.

when i get to where i want to be, i'll start doing appearance maybe. you can get so much more go-fast done for the price of a lot of the cosmetic crap. a grand on rims and a few grand on body kits installed and painted.... i think i'll put that towards a bigger blower.

What else do you have done? Cause you need about 250 at the wheels to start dipping into the 13's. Or a total drag suspension setup with around 220 rwhp.
