Y-Pipe
Chip
UDP
Lightened flywheel
The first 2 give TQ, the last 2 make better use of what you have.
NOTHING will give you gobs of torque outside of a Turbo or 3L...

it is a know fact that long tubes will give you tq.
you dont see to many cars running high single digits and 11's with shorties.
all i need now is a lot of throttle and a whole lot of bottle
i wish i was a NitroFish

[/b] well, i need new plugs, wires, had to fix 2 exhaust leaks, and was running with a CEL when i took that dyno... a soon as i get my new wheels on, and get my car into the dealer to get a few more "problems" fixed under my last 1000 miles of warrenty, i will get it dyno'd again, and then tuned. then we will see...
