Depends what YOU want to do to it. Its your car and nobody elses.

Do you want it be a sleeper, so it remains stock looking but with engine mods up the a** to make it fast, or do you want to do what "shawn2ktats" did. I've never seen a custom job where the has a custom 30's street rod look to it, with the car shaved up with a stream line look. I wonder how that would look?

Its up to you, if you threw out some thoughts or ideas people here could guide you along a bit.

Instead of getting the *** kit you could pick up little tid bits that dress the car up a bit without busting your budget, Partsforyourcar.com has alot of such things.

Engine wise, I would go with NOS, as long as you have a good place that can install it or if your a good mech. After that I would go for a exhaust system, the SLP is pretty cheap and I should have gone that route intstead of installing a Flowmaster system, I only saved about 50bucks once I got my bill and it only gave me a slight increase in hp (5-6 compared to 10+ with SLP or borla) over stock do to some of the stock piping still being there restricting the airflow. That and a cone filter will help from American Performace of Colorado will add a good 10hp.

The engine mods I listed total will cost you a little over a grand, the best of the list being the NOS that will add 75hp for about 600bucks. And NOS doesn't screw up your engine unless you do something really stupid. So its pretty safe and a good 3500bucks cheaper than buying a super charger that gives you the same hp gain.

Dropping the sus., go to http://www.gaupgrades.net and click suspension and you'll have a list of lowering springs and how much it lowers the car.

Hope this helps.
