    go for the cams and exhaust. it will keep you closer to your current HP. As far as nitrous. Its not my cup of tea. i never had much experience with it, but if its what you know and your thing stick with it.
    What PSI would you consider running the KB if you went with that option?

    And when you say "having", are you forced to make the steps, or is the mod bug bitting your ass really hard?
    Yeah, I dont really use the power I have now going back and forth to work 10 miles, and when I do, Im practically endangering myself and others

    Oh, Im not forced to mod my car, but realistically the next mod I get will be a large one. Im not wasting any cash on dumb ****.

    Yep that would be the plan, I actually dont have to use a chip since I have a XCAL tuner that can reflash when needed. So I can use a nitrous map whenever and a regular 93 oct map when driving around.

    To be honest, I would love to do it all. Im not a fan of autoxing though entirely. Road courses and 1/4 miles is what id like to stick to. But then Im faced with another purchase, brakes. The brake kit Id want is around another 2Gs. So in the mean time I would say all of this would be for a fun as hell weekend car to tool around in, since the Cougar is soon becoming my daily driver.

    I think most guys are running a 2.3 @ 8.5 lbs and getting around high 4s and low 5s. I wouldnt get the 2.8 though. I ran nitrous for two years with no issues, it was tuned however, and never once had low compression on any cylinders. The only thing that did suck was the 35 dollar per bottle fill every month heh or worse every two weeks.

    to be honest you probably do not need a brake kit, try it with a good set of pads then go from there.

    i would go with the NNNAAAWWWWWSSSS lol, reason being is that you can have the power when you want (aka use it at the strip), its cheaper, and 300whp is more than enough to have fun with at track days.
