Default Bolt on hp gain

as of rite now im stock besides an slp loudmouth catback just ordered a zex nitrous kit but i dont want to be slow off the bottle so ive decieded to go all out with bolt ons

all i need from you guys is to know which does the most so i can get them in order of importance and best bang for my buck!

car is a DD that i need EVERYDAY besides sunday so things such as head work and camming it isnt an optional for now

heres a list of bolt ons ive found with an estimate of price (if i forgot anything feel free to add to the list for me). and if i will gain even more rwhp while spraying please include that! i know all this is just an estimate but i want to find out from people that arent paid by the company to calim 15hp when others say you really olny get 3. thanks alot for your help

well the only thing i can think of at the moment is a set of gears. i love my 3.73s and for a DD they are THE BEST. it will definitly be the most bang for your buck. maybe a short throw shifter to tighen up those shifts also and add subtle touch to the driving experience. suspension is also a biggie, having those bolt ons is nothing if you can't plant it. a decent set of tires. possibly some c/c plates. if you do mean it when you say all out then theres a lot more you can get into, but IMO these are the basics. happy modding

i would def get new gears and a programmer first. is that nitrous kit a wet kit or not? if its not a wet kit i would return it for one. those dry kits are like a ticking time bomb

Gears, Lower and Upper control arms.


Be sure you search through these forums for additional advice on the N2O setup. There's a lot more to it above and beyond installing the kit and spraying away.
