Its simple and has been proven before. NP tune, LT's, good exhaust and a good cam. Plus there are gears, stalls, which CAI is better, what muffler is better. I think I need to start back at the beginning and read this again.

The info in this is confusing if you don't know which people to listen to. Try the 100 hp on a budget thread made by Allen Nelson. That has all the right stuff.Originally Posted by texasbred

bootlife, make sure to get the tb spacer ported to add another 10 ft lbs of tq. Also, make sure you get the most expensive shorties you can find. Remember the more money you spend on one item the more hp gain you get. to get more tq from you're exhaust, run a 1 1/2" pipe straight through with no cats or mufflers. they restrict you and the smaller pipe helps keep your exhaust flow constant. dont worry about a custom tune. anyone selling custom tunes is a liar no matter how many years they have been doing it. I highly recommend the 78mm BBK tb, its worth every penny. even though, the net gain is almost zero, it feels more powerful and thats all that matters. hope this helps.

Wow, how did I miss this thread till Justin told me about it?
Anyways, the only good throttle body spacer should have red and blue lines attached to it. Definitely, want a cam and long-tubes...
Hold on got to finish peeing in the wind real quick..

And remember kids, keep your headlight fluid full.
Silly new guy.... There isn't such thing as headlight fluid. On the other hand it is very important to check your tail light fluid level. If you don't you could void ur warranty.

Muffler bearings usually go out about the same time.
I worry about gauge cluster coolant.
