Hey guys i have a 2001 gt with intake exhaust, goldline springs, and a 100 shot on my Nos kit. Im not too into the body kits and spoilers just performance, so what would u guys recommend my next mod be to the engine or electronics? thanks

if you're running a 100 shot of nitrous on a GT, your next thing should be saving for a new engine. those engines (without lots of internal work) aren't made to handle that much, i've heard 75 is the safe max. amount for GTS's, so GT's might are probably a little less. don't wanna sound rude or anything, but just trying to warn you before something bad happens. by the way, other than intake and exhausts, there's not many "go fast" aftermarket parts out for our cars yet. best thing to do would probably be patient and wait on a turbo. you could get an S-AFC and maybe gain 2 or 3 horsepower, but that's probably not what you're looking for. good luck...

i know David Draper at West Covina Toyota can get you one: http://www.wctoyotasport.com
i think titan motorsports has them too: http://www.titanmotorsports.com
also, you might want to check the "for sale" section of this forum, i've seen some going around in there from time to time.

Okay you want to know you got it.
Apexi S-AFC: Any performance shop. About 6hp.
Headers: Mb Autosport 7+hp gain (rumored) There are no real dynos yet.
B&M Short shifter: Mb Autosport
Carbon Fiber hood: Mb Autosport (lightens your car about 50lbs I think. Less weight= go faster.)
S2000 fuel injectors: More fuel.
Am I missing anything?
I've listed about all I can think of right now. I'm into some speed and turning heads. A little of both.<IMG SRC="http://www.newcelica.org/ubb/smilies/cwm38.gif" border=0>
