    I just got an email saying I've got a $500 check in the mail for a sponsorship for the next racing season since this one is almost over for me. The question is... What would be the best thing to put the money towards? It's my daily driver so it can't be anything too extreme and I dont want to go with a cam yet and I'm not looking to go with rockers at all.

    Current mods: AL 104's, 180*, 10.4 mm wires, CAI, Tuned, 3.4", Headers, KYB AGX, SSC springs, Front STB, rear sway bar.

    I was kind of leaning towards an intercooler, but maybe you guys/girls will have some ideas for smaller parts that would be helpful in the reliability department too.

    Probably an intercooler, then you could drop pulleys like no tomorrow, but thats gonna put you over your $500 mark.

    Rockers would be your only best bet IMO...or a slew of look good mods for the car. I mean...you can have Brian (reptile) port and polish your Gen V Supercharger for less than $500...might shoot him a PM as there is nothing like popping your hood and people just dropping their jaw saying DAYUM...look at dat der shinee blowhur

    for $500 i would piece together an intercooler or just go ahead and cam the car. those are really the only mods that are going to make a big difference.

    1/4 and 1/8 mile, so no one suggests doing something more along the lines of preventive maintenance?

    Ported and Polished Supercharger. That's what I said and I'm sticking to it. More whine, awesome finish, Lower Outlet Temps and a larger bore outlet and inlet.
