Why has no one mentioned NOS?
It bolts right on and adds decent power.



To be serious, the best mod you can do is the AFE Short shifter. Does not add power, but makes the car feel so much better

There are actually a lot of good writeups on nitrous and Ray (CRH of Black Halo Racing Fame) is a nitrous guru and can give a lot of advice on it. I seriously considered going with a 50 shot of nitrous but ended up deciding that I wanted to really got nuts with this car. So instead I'm going to have a catless, meth injected, turbocharged rotary daily driver. ...but I'm crazy.

Hope all of this helps
