I am glad Alex got the car, I think he will have alot of fun with it and “see the light” so to speak…

As far as future mods I would do-

1- Lid

2- Nittos

3- maybe some :snky:

I will have a Firebird Monsoon I’ll be selling in a few days if your interested (I bought it before I sold the car but I havent gotten it yet)

Nice winter car :lol:  
Ya, I liked that setup on my car: Free mods, new era tune, and a $60 SLP lid. Went 12.09 111, then some ducts to the lower airbox went 12.6 113. great :snky:

Haha thanks for all the support guys…

This year, I think I’m gonna buy a lid and make a ram air dealy for free like here: [http://www.installuniversity.com/install\_university/installu\_pages/freshman\_year/free\_ram\_air\_mod.htm](http://www.installuniversity.com/install_university/installu_pages/freshman_year/free_ram_air_mod.htm)

Get some nice drag radials or street radials.

Cam/heads/spray will be next year.
