Well if you can install it yourself i would get a trans-go shift kit. about $120 for them Well worth it I even paid to have mine put it came to about $400 total and i have no regrets. 150-170 wont do any good on the rear but i would have it checked. and a C.A.I can be made with the right stuff probably would run $50 to make a good 1

I would look for a set of used headers. I only paid $150 for a set of ceramic LT pacesetters with just a few scratches in them.

Try looking for the problem rather than asking about it on the internet when none of us can help you find a clunk...

When I had an interesting sound coming from my car -- I took a video of it so people could help me diagnose it.

You have to help us, help you.

I also put a little more effort into my posts so that they were easy to read and follow. No offense hoss, but you are all over the place. A lot of people, if they see what seems to be a lot of incoherent babble -- they won't put the effort into reading it, let alone attempting to help you diagnose your issues.

Just a little word from the wise.

And to answer your original question (before you tried to act like this thread was to find your 'clunk') -- In terms of modifying your vehicle $150 - $175 isn't that much. Save it up and definately do a lot more research before you dump a dime into your car.
