Default where are the cheap bolt-on's?

Lately I been really tight on money but I'm good now. So where are all the good bargains for lids, intakes, etc.? I always see different prices on alot of parts. It's really hard to buy bolt-on's that equal H.P for the money. When comes to that I'm confused. Any feedback, thanx guys. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

well there is a new lid for our airbox out right now that is on a group purchase. forget there name but go to the group purchase link and you will see that. next i would go for a catback. those two mods should give you around 20rwhp.

From what I've learned "cheap" and ls1 is a contradiction in terms. But it sure is fun <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Yeah I've been going with low dollar mods myself, I still have 2 years left on warranty so I'm taking it easy. I do have cat back and such. Yesterday was my latest mod, timing tricker. A 20 cent resister and I can feel the increase in power!

Also, scour the "Parts for sale" section of LS1TECH. There are some great deals out there if you pay attention....Lots of parts are never, or very little used. WJ. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
