This is the cold air intake I know it does not look like much but it adds 15hp and 15tq (<-with ram air system).

This is that cold air intake after me and my dad put it on it took only 15mins and made a big difference in power. You can even here it sucking in air now.

This is my future wife holding my new flowmaster.

These are pics of the flowmaster on the car. The people that put the muffler on did a great job looks stock.

This is the ram air setup (done); I think it turned out really good. There are a lot of bends but you can fill the difference. It is very hard to see on the car so it still looks stock. My dad and me did this in about 30mins.

Ok the engine swap is done with all the performance (cold air, muffler, 180thermostat) the power is 255hp with 295tq. The motor is 1995 stage 1 L27; here are the pictures of our installation. More details will come soon.

This is the new motor when I was putting on new gasket. The motor was bought on ebay for $500 it only has 55k miles. A friend and me went 2k miles round trip to New York to get it, in the middle of winter.

Here is a picture of the new motor and the old motor.

This is the car when we got the old motor out.

This is a picture of the exhaust; we took it off so we could move around better under the car. This is also when we found out that we needed to get a custom power steering hose.

So that puts the motor at 255hp and 295tq witch is not bad because I only spent $1800 dollars on the parts and engine swap.

These are the rims I bought to hold the new performance tires; the rims cost 25 dollars each.

These are the new performance tires, they are BF Goodrich 205/60R 15. Together they where $150 dollars to my door from a catalog. After buying the rims and having the tires put on the total cost was $220 dollars. I think it was well worth the money, and I think this new setup will help my traction problem at the drag strip.

I just got my new 3in high flow cat in, it was the last thing I need to do my bigger exhaust.

My old supercharger was going out so I found this replacement. It has been rebuilt with the rotors closer together than stock for more boost. I sent back the supercharger that made 10.5-11psi, for one that was bigger with more boost. You can see the size difference in the pic above.

This is my smaller pulley and performance coupler from zzp. The coulper is a must when running a smaller pulley. The pulley will give me 2.5psi more than what I had.

Another mod I did while I had the super charger off was, putting on a bigger throttle body, you can see it in the pic.

The first pics is the intake with the S/C off.
The secound is a new S/C with fresh paint.

Here is the pic of the finished product, its pushing around 15psi-16psi. With all the extra air flow and bigger throttle body. The car should make around 320hp, but the cold air intake, and air fitler are to small for the bigger throttle body so for know I am just going to say its around 300hp.

These two pics are of my new exhaust system I had put on about a weekago. It is a 3inch down pipe into a flowmaster with dual outlets then two 2inch pipes come out both sides as show in the picture. This exhaust is one of the highest flowing you can make, and it makes the car sound like a muscle car "its also very loud". I only spent $260 dollars for the exhaust and made a huge diffence it adds around 10-15hp. I will have to test the car more to get the exact hp #.
