  • Whats the cheapest way to make my camaro faster?

    I just received 1500 dollars for fixing a 2003 Harley Roadster and selling it. The job took around 3 weeks to paint it and replace some parts. Anyway, I just want to know what would be the best part or parts to buy to make me faster other than nitrous. Should I get cams if I can, or a new rear end? I already have the basics, ram air, k&n, and exhaust. I want to be able to tie 99 mustang gt's, and not just the older 4.6's and 5.0's. Some body help me out.

    get some ignition upgrades, wires, plugs, coils to start out with. an MSD DIS 4 box will help with that too. Unless you deicde to do the cam yourself it is gonna cost a lot, if you dont want to get into the cam, get rockers instead, very easy upgrade, and good for 20 hp for 1.9 Ratio. Also a cam may require new springs, retainer etc.... tires are also key, you will need to grip the road in order to take down anything, are you A4 or M5?

      I would do the following

      *Roller Rockers 1.9
      *MSD DIS-4 , MSD coil packs , Wires , NGK plugs
      *maybe put some bigger injectors in it
      *LSD (3.43's)
      *Aluminum Driveshaft
      *Spec stage 2 clutch (3 if your planning on going T/C , S/C , or nitrous later on)

            Would it be better to get 3.73's?

                skip the ignition junk, not gonna gain much from that. I would get in on the abbotts racing cam group purchase they are doing right now. Make some really good power with their NA cam.

                      a good price yes, but are you able to do your own cam swap? If not add another $400-700

                        Where would you get some Roller Rockers? I've had trouble finding them.

                            At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
                            Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...
