Urethane-filled trans mounts would help reduce wheel-hop. A DIY mod.

go with a larger exhaust than 2.25" go with 2.5"

I have a 2.25 and a ORP on mine, and I feel like I'm choking her on the highway.

Ok guys, i'm looking for the same thing here, tryin to figure out where i can get more power, i want to stick with N/A, not one for the SC. but lookin for any other ideas, i'am loosing my lowered suspension back to my brother in exchange for the stock svt suspension, and eventually i will purchase another eibach lowering kit, but other than that, any sugestions?

i like the look of the sri better

but i did wrap my reader and it helps to cut down the bay heat
a little
