100% sure you have to have at least a 50% chance of getting down the track......

In that case your set up would be.........LOSING

My two biggest gains came from high stall converter and drag radials.

1. GOOD AIR FLOW! (upgrade ram air box/ cold air intake)
2. THROTTLE BODY!
3. OPEN EXHAUST (headers, cat delete, etc.)
4. GEARS! (Trans and rear end)
5. COMPUTER TUNE!!!

if you can afford it, you should computer tune your car after EVERY upgrade. it does nothing but help! and before any of this, i recommend a shock tower bar! for better handling!

and also, something very simple and inexpensive to do is lowering. i lowered my Trans Am 3in in the rear and saw a HUGE difference in power displacement. it makes your car hook a whole lot better than factory ride height. thanks for reading! i'm new to this site.
