The 12V is able to produce the same power as the 30V when Supercharged.

You could have the intake and heads ported and get the engine bored out more (if theres room), which means you'll have to tune the computer and do the exhaust to get the most from the engine. I heard there was a variable valve timing addon (that i assume lengthens the time the valve stay open, not just shorten), thats brillant, i'd do that. How about a belt driven universal supercharger addon, i thought ProCharger had one. Maybe a cold air setup, or maybe it has a good one already, i don't know. Maybe some air-ducting to the front brakes? One thought one that lightweight crank pulley, is the dampener on that thing as robust as the stock one? You don't want your engine to vibrate more. A vacuum gauge isn't stupid if your into tuning. I'm installing an electric oil pressure gauge, i think thats a good idea. My mechanical one in my old hot-rod leaked in the engine compartment, thats why i'm going the electric route this time. You'll prob need some brass adapters to fit the sender and teflon tape for sealing and your good to go.

I paid 5000.00 for car. and another five for repairs/maintenance.
That was a mistake. I did the same kinda thing on my first 2 cars and i always felt "stuck" with them. Your car does look good though and im sure its in good condition after $5k in repairs/maintenance. But why dump more money into it that isnt for regular maintenance???

Yeah that whole "Why sell it now when I've dumped all this money into it!!" philosophy ... isn't a good one. If I lived like that, I'd still own my 92 Eagle Talon... sometimes you have to know when to cut your losses.

Never go to a casino man... you wouldn't fare well.
