  • My final decision on mods. Feedback?

    After cycling through various ideas here is what I have decided:

    Mickey thomson et street radials

    An SCT chip or tuner ( I've heard that the tuner is better but you have to wait like five minutes to change tunes. What if you pull up next to a race on the highway and can't switch to the nitrous tune? Can the chip do that? An also can I use a bama custom nitrous tune from american muscle, or do I have go dyno tune it?

    you might want to look into nittos, they last a good amount longer.... since your car is a daily driver

      for a 100 shot wet, I don't think you have to worry too much about a tune. Drop a couple heat ranges on the plugs and always run premium. Nitto's won't hook as well as the M/T's, but they will net you the most highway miles.

            Thats not to great really. The nitto radials suck IMHO but for a daily driver its a descent option. I would also avoid a can tune and run a local dyno tune. NX/Nitrous outlet > Zex

              I would go with the tuner. I wouldn't go around playing to much with the nitrous though. Just stick to the track. Slot more safe

                    I am serious, but it's gonna be a couple months before I have the $. I have to buy $600 in tires first

                      It's aftermarket drag suspension pretty much all the way around. I cut a 2.0 60ft on my worn street tires, so I'm sure I won't have to worry about hooking on any drag radial.

                        you might want to get darker tint for your windows so the cops won't catch you again in the back seat.
