#1 get rid of the nozzle crap, it's inefficient....replace it with a plate kit....which iirc all you really need to do is relocate your gas/nitrous solenoids and ditch the nozzle for a plate...as a matter of fact JJ has the plate that came off the car, unless he has sold it
#2 tires, tires, tires....My previous offer on the wheels was like $600....I'll throw 'em at you just because I want to see this car make a # again for $500, skinnies, slicks, center caps, and all!
#3 The car has air bags for a reason....and 20 #'s in slicks? Good lord, I wouldn't run 20 #'s on dr's....save a couple bucks and pay JJ for a little track help, take in everything he says, hell write it down if you have to. I went from 13.8s on et streets to 12.8's simply by having JJ there to guide me with the tires and bags.
#4 tuning software....get some, you're leaving precious power on the table by not doing so...
#5 track time track time track time....it took me a couple months to learn that car on slicks, how to launch it without breaking stuff, etc....and pucker your asshole because it get hairy at times
cliff notes, bring me $1000...i'll set you up with slicks and tuning software, throw some money at JJ and let him teach you how to use what you bought, get rid of that horrid nozzle setup.
I know what money constraints are like....you don't have to take out a loan but if you want it bad enough you have to learn to sacrifice to get there...that car can run 10's all day long every day....you just gotta get it back there
