    Welcome to the board. Lots of things to do. Depends on how much you want to spend. I guess the next question is how fast do you want to go. Speed costs money.:Welcome:

    Just wondering how much much of a diference the hoodscoop is pushing out. I guess the car pulls it off because its a mav but how much hp would scoop give me ?

    Whats the serial number?? We can tell you if it's a Grabber or not, it should have a 93 as the third and forth digits.
