I guess I'll forget about the performance part and just make her look real pretty. Isn't attitude worth about 10hp?

Does anyone here have side decals w/ pics?
Ah yes, go for the all show and no go, just make sure you dont make it too rice.

handling

Yeah my speed is a blast on off ramps and on ramps I can get up to about 60 mph on some of them, some relatively sharp turns about 75 mph its a blast.

Well MP5girl, these cars are listed at 130hp but when they are dynoed they have around 100. But yea, with 80 bucks I am not sure that you can really make any cars gain a whole bunch of hp Welcome to the board too.

Welcome to the board! It's nice to see another female on here. Quckest easiest and cheapest gain you're going to be for HP is with NOS. But if you choose to go that route be careful, it can be VERY harmful to the engine. As far as quarter mile times, our 02 sedan ran mid 15's with the NOS kit on street tires spinning 1-3 off the line cause we couldn't get grip. On the street it performed much better!

Don't they spray stick-em or silicone down at your track? You should get better grip at a track.
