To be honest, I don't think your time here at CSS will ever be the same.

Someone will chime in eventually with good info, but you'll get bashed alot first. Wish I could help

If I really wanted to drop the whole because racecar thing, I guarantee I could. Just don't reply for a few days, make a new email, re-register, don't post anything, don't fill out any profile stuff or upload pics, maybe lie about my location. Not hard at all.

I ran dry nitrous on my old cavalier back in the day, I ran a 75 Shot with no issues, Once tuned it runs like a charm " I had a built Z24 engine "

Anyways to answer your question I believe the Jet performace wont give you all the the custom factors that you want so I would probably stick with Trifecta and make sure you talk to your dealer or vince that you will be running nitrous so they can richen up your Air to Fuel ratios also I would recommend that you run 93 octane to prevent knock even further

And technically I go to school at the University of Kansas, I could always make an account when I go back home (Different IP) or at a friends house (Different IP). This IP is for KU, like I said. If I was really the kind of person to be genuinely bothered by the sudden burst of everything, all I'm saying is it's feasible.

Firstly, I appreciate the legit post ha.. Those are rare (#iwonderwhy)

I started looking at the z24 cavys and they're pretty dope!
And my Trifecta guy get a lot done. He asked that I pay the $75 for a NoS retune at the same time that I swap my K&N SRI/CAI for an Injen Legit CAI and get my custom 2.75" or 3.00" catless exhaust with another Magnaflow, plus he will raise my speed limited to 145 since I bought 'V' rated tires. I'm on 91 right now, and would love to push 93 through it. Gotta love that BP offers it for the same price as 91 locally. And as far as tuning in general, I want to run Trifecta AND HPTuners, but HPT will come after I come up with another $500 to finish up what I need to get ready for my Trifecta retune.

Thanks. I've got no reason to really shy away from it. I think it's hilarious, and like I've said before, once you make a choice you can either try to disown it, or you can stand by it, and that's what I do in general. And at least I have my best friend standing right by me with this one. Getting Because Racecar tattoos when we were 18/19 will most likely not lose it's humor appeal to us in 20 years. It's setting up to be a "Remember when...?" so it's all good with me.

Nope, I wasn't actually watching the speedo just my shift points. I was in 4th at 6500 RPM and looked over and the needle was at 145. I was 2+ car lengths ahead. It was the middle of the night so no cars were around but still lol

i dont know what to say anymore, but is it really worth all the work for a 30whp gain? lol

all you other options seem to have the same "power adding" goal

leaf blower "30whp gain"

ebay turbo kit "30whp gain"

now a 35 shot "30whp"
