I just put in a K&N FIPK cold air unit for now.
Future plans are a set of full length headers w/perf. exhaust system. LS6 intake manifold, w/larger throttle body. A set of 1.8 roller rockers and a visit to the dyno for a good "tune."
This according to the tuner will make over 400 hp easily.
Then I will have to put in a set of heavy duty halfshafts. I don't think the stock ones will handle the extra power.
I wish I had $7,000 to play with, then I'd put a Magnuson supercharger on it. So until I hit the lottery, it ain't happening.
BTW, this car is a blast to drive. Thankfully it's hers, cause if it was mine I think I wouldn't have a license at this moment.
