If my package is too much, and you are talking big-time cheap-o mods, then do this:

- Remove the restrictor pill out of your stock boost lines
- get a $30 Jegs cutout for your stock exhaust (open for power; close for quiet)
- Pay for a $175 base Dynoflash when he comes to Houston in mid-April

That should make you pretty fast for only $205 plus shipping on the cutout.

sounds like the budget caught up to ya......dont mod till you have more money...you'll only be suffering for more money if you spend a little here and a little there. but hey to start off:

TBE, mbc, boost gauge, drop-in filter, dynoflash.....should get you into the low high 12s....maybe mids if your lucky
