Soon its diminishing returns....don't ya think Import?
I agree Kirk, and with mods both you and I have, I actually expected more out of both cars. I admit, I have a lot of money in the car. With all my mods, including the gauges and drag radial setup, I have $5,500 invested in the car. But I did get in on a lot of group buys and have good relationships with a lot of the vendors on here, otherwise it would be closer to $7,500. Do I believe all the mods we equal bang for the buck? No, but you get to a point (like said above) that its hard to make a few more horsepower. My next steps to make more power, after I get injectors and a fresh dyno tune, would be nitrous or a turbo kit. Nitrous is a possibility....and turbo will not happen, to expensive.
