Newbie question - 1st mod
#43
Call warpspeed and tell them you're from the org. They should give it to you for $160. If not get it from budget.
If you're not going to lower you may want to consider the blehmco lower tie bar. It is said to improve steering response as well as help keep the RSB from making the car real tail happy. http://www.mattblehm.com/suspension.html
I think the FSTB does do something (handles slightly better in real sharp corners and reduces torque stear). Besides its only $20 off ebay.
You should also check this site out. It has lots of info on just about every mod out there. http://maxmods.dyndns.org/.

Same goes for subframe connectors. They're only 30 pounds or something but what a difference they make.

Headers alone = Approximatly 5 HP
Also atleast 5 Hr. Hard Labor (Im being very giving) = Less than 1 HP Per. Hour Labor
Hr. Labor Approx. $80
Sooo... $400 Labor + $300 Part = $700 for Approximatly 5 HP :

Damn, I have a lot of stuff to improve!!!
I purchased a FSTB (cheap, EBay), a CAI (cheap, EBay), and am looking into a WSB Y-pipe. After reading a few posts out here, may skip the CAI mod as I live in Oregon and don't want to drown my engine (and I am not convinced of the gain received by this). Y-pipe and FSTB will happen, maybe RSB and springs/struts down the road...
