One thing that your going to want to do is come to one of our meets, like the one on the 5th of January at D&B's. Incase you don't know, its on Hall Rd just E of Van Dyke. Check out the post for more info Once you show up, meet everyone and check out the cars you'll get an idea of what to do first, second, third, etc A basic mod for a "virgin" CSVT is to remove the resonater, replace w/ a straight pipe or cherry bomh and get an open element K&N, whether its a KKM or drop in K&N and cut open stock air box Hope to see you on the 5th.
