    Converter, posi and sticky tires. If you can't stick it to the ground then you're just blowing smoke. (Sorry Tony Stewart)

    Maybe add some traction bars or improved rear suspension like a 4-link to improve things more.


    I guess the real question is "Where are you going with this?" Some may say a DVD entertainment system would be best or maybe some 26's.

    You speak the truth, I was thinking in Hp/Tq. Traction is my down fall right now hopefully some long bars or caltracs and some slicks will solve the issue

    dollar per hp

    probably exhaust, intake, tune, ud (in that order...assuming free/super cheap mods are done)


    dollar per better gas mileage prolly ud, exhaust, intake, tune
    blown transmissions are about as useful as 97% of the guys on this forum
