Pick my mod

Ok so I have a little dilemma on what I should do

Ive got about 350 to spend and I want to spend it on performance

I can get Hp Tuned for $350. or there is a Sniper 50 shot Nos kit on ebay for 344.00 Those are about the only things I can think of to get the most bang for the buck. any other suggestions?

Well before you run nitrous, you'll probally need a proper tune to run it safely. So before you drop $700 on HP Tuners + nitrous, I say use that $350 to complete your exhaust (CA v1 header + XTC cat-less downpipe = $380). Then once you have a full exhaust, then tune it all in, setup the car for spray, and then lastly get the nitrous setup.

Your about as dumb as the sig you have

I would say another h/e...if you got meth you would have to get tuned in which you would have to spend more than 350....so get another heat exchanger

Im just saying dual pass wouldn't be the best way to go, but I think a tune would be a very good thing to do!

for 350 they better be tuning you on a frickin dyno. thats ridiculous for a street / canned tune.

nitrous is hard on your engine and requires good tuning. that should be one of the last things you do on these cars, not a main power adder.

best bang for your buck would be header/dp exhaust or cooling mods like a front mount H/E, especially since you are 2.9" pullied. thats creating alot of heat.

Don't do meth injection with the gm stage tune. it usually makes the afr way too rich and cause it to run like ass.
