Don't expect killer gains from doing that. You start a lot of threads asking about horsepower gains. You're not going to get much more than 5 hp from each of the bolt ons. Ex ca intake, catback, midpipe, pulleys, etc. All together 200whp is the best you will do.

i know.. i just figure if I'm going to do something.. might as well do it right... i want to get the best of each part that i buy... just doing some research not trying to make a 1000whp car lol

just something i can toy around with with auto x till i get more money for maybe a turbo kit later on... = )

Pointless and probably not all that smart to do since it effects the aerodynamics but if you're gonna do it at least do what Acosta did before they went under.
