    Dom, the car MAY go lean esp with the SC. A ride on the dyno just to verify AF would be wise. A retune will net more HP than the header install alone.

    I have been saving, but I can't blow all my money at once. How I get my money is no ones business... I get it just like everyone else, I earn it. I just wanna know these things before I get into them. It's not like I will ask and do it in the same hour, actually this is still months away if I decide to do it this year, I have more important things to be worried about.

    At 22, I could barely pay off my Sears card and I actually had military training and was telephone central office technician.

    You play in a band!!!!

    Hook a mid aged guy up please. I just bought a blower, and just paid off my first new car. I am twice your age....what's your secret?

    +1 for the re-tune. Not a bad idea after ANY mod for optimum performance.
    +1 for the money question also. Maybe he doesn't have all the "bad habits" some of us did at age 22!

    Adjusted air in and air out.
    400+ timeslips.

    When in doubt, GAS IT! This will either fix the problem, or end the suspense.

    Yes. By moving the O2 sensors farther down the tubes you will need to adjust that in the tune.

    Don't smoke, Don't drink, don't get anyone pregent. Work hard, don't spend more than you have to, use the train to get to school, eat food at daddys place for free, don't be a nut for spending all the time, save half of the paycheck and save for other things... also when it it is time to spend make sure you are not broke when you get what you want.
    Sorry John I'm only trying to help others.
