Ok im talkin abt speed stuff. I dont care about your audio or paint job. Your car can look and sound like ass as long as it's fast. we're talkin straight go fast parts.here.I don't wanna know what so and so down the street or what big company has what,just you.Tell me what ya got, whatcha want and what you really think your gonna get.If you have numbers you can back up post em but only if you have a slip a dyno sheet or a reliable witness =)
I have a 95 sc2 with hot shot intake soon to be replaced with a shaker if XRC ever gets off there ass and gets me one. Port and polished head and intake manifold.2.25 cat back with dynomax super turbo muffler sprint 2 inch drop spring and 205/45/17 kuhmo ecstas on 17 rims. I am planning on gettin a apexi sytem installed as well as custom ground cams but thats a bit in the far future. Im thinkin with the new head and intake i should turn in some respectable times but the piston rings took a dump from the higher compression soooo we have to wait a bit to find out fo sure.

Current mods (performance wise):
-Monkey racing intake w/ K&N cone air filter
-NKG v-power plugs
-SPS plug wires
-MOS pullies
-Dynomax st exhaust
-Catco hi-flo converter (will be installed in a couple weeks)

Future mods and plans:
I'm really not sure what I want to do yet. Here's my choices I haven't made up my mind on.

-Either keep the SOHC engine like it is get it built with a good set of pistons and rods, ported and polished head, bore the engine. Then hook up a NX kit with a 75 shot. This could be done for sure by this summer.

-Swap to a DOHC with a 2000 block and '96 head, built with good pistons and rods, ported and polished, turbo or nitrous. This may take a long while for me to do.

i researched the 00 plus rods, they are NOT ANY stronger as far as rods go, yes, they are fractured at the crank and thus stronger there, but, the rod istlef is not ont iota stronger or thicker then any other stock rod, id go with crowers if building up the engine.
this is not an argument nor an opinion but based on fact, the fractured rods are ONLY stronger at the crank and can bend just as easily as any other saturn rod under boost, nos etc.
