Ok i just got my check for school for 2,500.(Dont let anyone tell you it dosent pay to go to college :coolsmiley:) Im going to pay debt with most of it but am giving myself 500 to play with. Im thinking 100 to have my tranny jmod'd, 130 for some MM full length subframes, and another 100 for a 255 fuel pump(mine is getting weak). Do you guys have any other ideas? There is a guy selling a spintech side exhaust near me and im starting to hate my dumps so i think i might go that route. Mods are in sig and i have my front steeda drag springs,90/10 lakewoods,everything to do the jmod, FRPP upper control arms, and new diff bushings in my garage waiting to go in. Thanks for the help guys. :TY:
Forgot about another 100 to have the subframes installed, and will that side exhaust fit with subframes?

Side exhaust requires special sub frame connectors that are designed to fit. Roush sells them and spintech might have them too. If you are going mm full length you will have to bang on it so it can bend around the side exhaust.

Why do you hate your dumps? It took me 7 different exhaust set-ups to find what I originally wanted!! Dumps!!!!
Side exit's were like #'s 5 & 6 though! Damn, it looked great though!!

Why don't you save another $300 or so and get a nice set of used heads?

Because it would be another 300 for nice heads. Im not going to waste my time with out a cam so, off the self is a waste to me so there is another 350 for a custom grind. The only nice heads i wamt are afr 165. I would still need all the gaskets and such so there is another 200. now we are at alot of money. Power means nothing to me if im spinning at the line. Plus i get another 2500 check next semester :dancing6: so no worries. ill get there. And i think i can hit atleast a 12.9 with my motor how it is. My car is going to be about what you dont see in the engine bay.(for now)

As for the exhaust. Have mine on for awhile and see how long you like it. Plus chokemaster as my friend calls them sound like crap to me now.

You know...anytime i see a person go 11's or low 12's N/A with stock cam and gt40p heads, cobra intake. I always wonder...Why the hell did i buy a aluminum heads to go 13's...

I have most respect for the guys who make power using factory stuff!

imo people waste to much money on heads cam and intake when they can do the same thing with suspension, torque converter, gears.

How old are they?

I would say $75 for the set if they are used.

What is a check for school? Is that tuition money? Are you still in school & if so don't you owe that money to them? Just a bit confused here as I don't know your situation.
