I wooda went with like headers or something, but for under 700 as far as performance i would go with like a bigger therottle body or intake manifold, i would think that that would make a big difference.[COLOR=Navy]2000 Navy Blue Trans Am, T Tops, Automatic, Ram Air, Slp 85mm Mas, Air Lid, Smooth bellow, Hooker 1.75 Lt's, ORY, LM1, Air/EGR delete, Throttle body coolant bypass.

Why wouldnt the intake manifold or throttle body work, is the engine not desighned for the extra air/fuel, or is there something else i'm missing?[COLOR=Navy]2000 Navy Blue Trans Am, T Tops, Automatic, Ram Air, Slp 85mm Mas, Air Lid, Smooth bellow, Hooker 1.75 Lt's, ORY, LM1, Air/EGR delete, Throttle body coolant bypass.

Im with TraceZ...Tie the frame rails together and stiffen the front with a brace... You will still have money left over if you watch for a bargain...Greg W. in West Michigan

I would say headers wouldn't be a bad investment the hooker 2055's seem to be a big favorite but with the ceramic coating (which is a must) it might get a little expensive for what you wanted to spend. they are 745 and some change from summit and include the y-pipe. If not I definately agree with TraceZ and go for some SFC's and a strut tower brace it will really tighten the car up a lot.-Dan
