92 SSEI (dont know what to do)
Hi, i rencently purchased a 92 bonneville SSEI and alot of people at my school have some pretty fast cars and i want to be able to run with some of them. What kind of mods can i do that wont leave me broke? So far ive seen a Hypertech chip and thermostat, K&N filter but ive been to alot of performance sites and cant find any products like exhaust and such for my ride anyone got any suggestions?

Scott cook doesn't have the most power in a bonneville
Check out my thread in this section called "Intake options (Rice pipe). That'll do you for good breathing, you'll also want to open up your exhaust, mainly a hi flow Cat, possibly a muffler if you want it louder.
After that you can play with pulleys on the supercharger, making it turn faster for more boost. a 180 with a pulley is a must.
Jetchips makes a very nice chip for obd 1 bonnevilles like yours as well. Removes the governor, adds power, etc.

Look for 13'* at best with a reasonable budget and some mechanical skill.

All forged internals, 150 shot, 20 lbs of boost, on a 9:1 comp ratio, great aftermarket intercooler, with some wide a$$ slicks with a 3.71:1 gear reduction, and you could run 10'* without trying.....
All that would come up to about $10000 in custom fab.
Dont say it isnt possible......

I guess I could do that in my car then, all I need is aftermaket intercooler and NOS, my compression is better at 10.5:1 and my gearing is 3.71:1
