    haha, fine, guess you can't get a straight forward answer around here.

    Don't think the site tells how much time a cai/headers/spark plugs/pcm picks up on the 1/4 mile

    yah, I hear ya. I'm in missouri so the temp/conditions can vary a good bit. Plan on staying away from nitrous but we'll see how it turns out.

    you dont need n20

    1.9 rockers
    headers
    bad ass street tune

    your basic 13 second gp

    should put lengths on ur dad

    slightly smaller pulley, maybe like a 3.5-3.6. A lot of guys will say 3.4-3.3 but i like doing tuning around timing, not pulley sizes.

    why is there a 350z in ur avatar?

    if ya aint cheatin, ya aint tryin!

    read safely modding your 3800 thread to know why you do things in the order in which they are done... once you understand it, imitate it and youll scoot by that 66 before you know it...

    thanks for the advice, I plan on putting a pic of my car up soon. The 350z is not mine, but it's a car I'd like to own a few years down the road.
