Don't think it'd make a huge difference, unfortunately.

After installing a prototype OTL EL header and JDL overpipe/frontpipe combo we took the car back to the dyno to see if we could make any more power.

The mid-range is nice but with CARB and the EPA on the rampage a stock car with a tune seems to be the real ticket.

Say it louder. Buying 3 piece shocks that are universal and adapted for the platform will NEVER perform as well as properly designed suspension.
