how much do you want to spend?

If you really want to get faster, I think it would be good to start with an engine swap, but that will cost you a lot of money... Like RR said, how much are you willing to spend?

Keep it under 4K CDN$$ and no swap

What's the Canadian exchange rate? Will $4k buy a turbo setup?

its about 2500$ US.

Turbo setups are expensive as hell here and would the tranmission be good for anything?

Just curious what do you think I/H/E w/ 55 or 65 shot of NOS yield.

I'm sure that setup would get you at least into the time range you're shooting for. How many miles do you have on your engine?

2500.00 should easily buy you i/h/e/nos you might look into a racing cam or some other internals with the leftover money.

40k,

I'm just thinking that maybe with the automatic even after I/H/E the goal won't be reached.

I already have an AEM CAI, and a Catback. So less buying would be good :)

2500...headers 150(used)...zex kit 350(used)...zex plugs 20..purge kit 100..greddy kit 1000-1500 (used and usually comes with lots of extras for that )...walbro fuel pump 120...fpr 35-55(used)......2500 is alot of money to work with and i believe is enough to hit the times u want...there is a lil list of prices on items worth considering..id go with the nitrous set up..its cheapest and safe unless foul play....if u need help finding those parts for price listed then let me know..i see it all the time on the net....you probably could even find it cheaper...
