what to get for 1 grand

**harri_z28** · 08-28-2008, 10:23 AM

ok so i have about 1000 bucks to work with, what is the best thing i can do performance wise for my 02' z28?

depends...you could go the nitrous/LT headers route or...
camshaft/springs/LT headers if you're going engine mods.
if you want a better hooking and stiffer ride; lower control arms, shocks, tires, shifter (if 6 speed), torque converter (if auto). kinda pick what you want for a grand out of those...

+1 but maybe save up the money instead of buying a cat back wait till you get LTs and go with a cut out for now.

**JwMonE99** · 09-01-2008, 10:15 AM

stall = best bang for the buck... and one of the best mods for a A4 car... you will run a half second faster with just a stall...

**harri_z28** · 09-02-2008, 07:23 PM

ill get the stall next paycheck, im set on headers ypipe, lid, and tune

**karpetcm** · 10-31-2008, 07:36 AM

Im trying to figure it out, why would the exhuast cut out mess with the tune just curious because im going that route. Cant a tune take into account the mods you have for your car?
