Default New Here, Need Advise

First of all i would like to say hi to everyone, i have been registered for a while now but this is my first post. I drive a 99z28 with a Flowmaster American THunder Catback, K&N Filter, and a descreened and home ported MAF. Im getting ready to drop some money into it and would like some advise. I want a little appearance and a little performance. Right now im thinking either an american sports car design SS hood or a Cowl Induction hood (eventually i paln on supercharging so Ram air would only be temporary gain). Also headerss (probably mac mid length with off road y-pip, no emissions to pass). After those 2 things i would like to add a Venom VCN-1000 nitrous kit for some cheap speed. I know this would not hook on the track with my street tires so next would come some nito 555 drag radials for the rear. After that depending on how much money all that adds up to maybe some 3.73's and a power programmer. Thanks in advance for your help, it is very appreciated.

If you would like some performance and something that looks good > I'd try lowering your car with some springs. It looks and feels great! Or some cheap performance > get the 3.73 gears > very nice, and I'am highly against the power programer (unless you drive an auto) waist of $$$$. Lots of other ways to change what that worthless thing does! Anyway good luck to ya! Remember > always do research, you'll save lots of money. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
