Glad I don't have a credit card or I would be doing some serious damage...
(8) Summit Racing COP's: $279.60
(8) NGK TR-6 spark plugs: $15.92
(1) MSD Digital Window Switch: $115.70
(2) Nitto 555R Drag Radials 315-35-17: $369.90
Total from Summit Racing: $781.12.
(1) Harris Speed Works Sudden Impact Wet Nitrous Kit (single nozzle): $399.99
(1) -4AN line purge kit w/intallation kit: $79.98
(1) Fuel Pressure Saftey Switch: $49.99
Total from Harris Speed Works: $561.69
If I could tune for nitrous with my Diablosport, freebie. If not, add in $250 for a great nitrous tune from our local speed shop.
Grand total of $1,342.81.
If my Diablosport doesn't work for a tune: $1,592.81...
That would keep me rather happy for a while.
There are other places I could spend that money on the car, if I don't fall asleep and get even more bored I might make another list...
But damn, think about it... for that price, I would be really hard pressed buy new cams w/ springs, retainers, seals, install them myself (need to purchase tools) and get a dyno tune for the $1,500... nitrous really is the king of bang for the buck!!!
The other end of the spectrum would be replacing worn out suspension parts, and some appearance mods (new headlights and a chin spoiler).
Wish I'd hit the lotto...
So I paid $7,800 for the car.
So far I have rougly $2,400 in parts/mods in it.
So total investment of around $10,200.
Add in the above of $1,342 and that brings it to... $11,542 or so.
Can't buy a Mach (yet) or 03/04 Cobra for that price. If I went the nitrous route, i'd hope I would hit mid-12's at least, faster than most mild-bolt on Mach's, and right around or JUST quicker than stock 03/04 Cobra's.
So when the nitrous pop's my motor then im down the hole for that... plus my clutch will need to be replaced soon, regardless of what route I take... Flywheel while i'm at it, oh... and I'm sure the old T-45 wouldn't like the nitrous too much.
Man, I need to occupy my time some other way...
