probably not unless the stock ones are worn out and you're on sticky tires. you'd see some really impressive gains by something like a HPM torque arm

why would brand new parts be "the right way" the right way would be the cheapest most reliable amount for almost anyone.

OK, is it me or is the OP all over the place in this post?

He doesn't want to loose AC then states he is getting the AC delete pulley, states he needs it to be consistant, and does nothing to gurantee that like suspension and goes with a N2O kit that may make it 3 rounds but the bottle pressure will never be consistant...

Scott - Where are you at in PA? I can show you what a consistant 12.0 LT1 will take, and it is more then just throwing nitrous and a few bolt-ons at it. Also if your interested in running in a racing series in this area then I would recomend the Ram Racing's N/A shootout, I run in the 12.0 index class there...

Tony, I'll agree to being the man, LOL, but I didn't realize I was your personal mentor... Does that mean I get paid for all those questions? LOL...

Well i just went out to work on the car today and give it a tune-up and i found that some of the A/c was already half taken out so i decided just to finish taking it out instead of trying to find parts to fix it.

I am 45 mins south of pittsburgh. I know it takes more than what i have added but this is jsut a start, the rest will be suspension mods until i get that dialed in. I got a T-N-T coming up next weekend to show me where i am at. What is the Ram racing's N/A shootout?

http://www.nashootout.com it is a racing series that goes to many tracks in the area (NJ, PA, VA, and MD) started by a racing head porting shop that specialized in getting the most out of an N/A (Naturally Aspiriated) combination. They first started it as a showcase of their work many years ago, but recently it has grown and started including some other classes like the index class I race in. But your N2O would be a no no there. Mikey from Rapid Motorsports (one of the sponsors here) should be racing with us this year as well, at least I saw him post over there during the winter anyway...
