It IS sort of silly though to buy a $17,000 car and then spend $15,000 more to make it almost on par with a $25,000 car.
I do like suspension and handling mods though, if I was into that scene then that is all I would do, suspension, handling, and brakes. Juicing up the engine just to lose to stock camaros is just silly, and its only useful on the street if you want to drive like a moron, which you cans till do cheaper with a stock Camaro or Mustang.

OMG i just typed this decent sized reply and then it said my pic was too big, and i hit back and it was gone. But anyway the basic jist was, I ran 13.5 last time at the track but since then ive gotten a bunch of ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. im definately hitting 12s this summer. but im really more into autocross than dragging
btw, 4g63T engine can easily take 400-500HP on stock internals. DSMs are the v8 slayers, 4 bangers can own v8s, just not those crappy SOHC honduh engines.
