Free mods ???

The free mods that are out there will give you minimal gains....

Youre gonna have to pay for your mods to get sifnificant gains......bank on $1000.00 per 10 RWHP...

Or hopefully you can get some "pay it forward" stuff off the forum....

There is always the AnA exhaust mod. I don't have any pics at the moment, and it doesnt make any power... but heck it makes it sound so nice

If you know someone with a welder, its free!
