    I have kinda a weird plan for this car that I have just made after researching for a bit. This may be a long winded post, so bear with me. I plan to buy Speed Daddy headers, a special LIM from ZZP which I can drop onto my L36 without changing heads,(ZZPerformance - Ported & Machined Lower Intake #ZZ-PLIM), an M90 with an MPS from the SS kit from ZZP with a 3.8 pulley so I can run the blower off the accessory belt, and I have HP tuners so I can my stock PCM accordingly. The only issue is, I know NOTHING about tuning. I just recently got the program from a friend and all I've done with it is changed fan turn on temps, torque management, and moved shift points, and kick down speeds. I haven't touched anything else for fear of messing something up. But yeah. That's what I wanna do. Because I don't think I can spend any more than 400-500 dollars MAX on this upgrade. Any input is appreciated. I figure I can get more out of this than ER rockers and HV3.

    Well you basically start with an L67 car tune and change the tranny tables for the 3.29 gears. then do your maf tune, and then timing.
