• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

How much power can I make while staying N/A?

Don't waste the money staying N/A. My car N/A went 14.9 @93 with every bolt on. You live in canada take a ride to cartuning and get a turbo kit and a tune.

I wonder what a stock car woulda made on that dyno. It's so tough throwing WHP figures around when people go to these feel good dyno shops lol

N/A forever !!!!! I would have bought the s/c version of my car in a heartbeat if it was available but sadly GM discontinued them by the time I was in the market for a new car.

If you do a top swap correctly, you'll have spent the same as a turbo and go slower.

Selling your car isn't a good idea if you've already put money into replacing other components.

You might have to do that with the new car as well

Havnt put a dime into her yet. Also considering buying a 98-99 because insurance is cheaper.
 
You can stay NA and get ZZP's GT cam ($325 + ~$100 for gaskets), Headers (~$250-???? depending on what you get), HV3 ($200), intake (~$50) and a custom tune ($???) and right there you are looking at a minimum of ~$1000 without making much power.

OR you could piece together a top swap, get the heads rebuilt, get the SC rebuilt (if it needs it), get headers and a custom tune for about the same price. My top swap will be about $1200, and that's spending $275 on getting the heads rebuilt and getting nice headers (Ceramic coated TOGs). You'll make way more than your N/A car going that route, and you will have your options open to continue modding as well.
