there are many many ways to do what you want. I guess I would like to know what are your future plans.

is your goal to only run a low 13 - high 12 and get fair mpg? or are you trying to get to high 12 sec. 1/4 for now on your budget and like most want to go even faster later? (like buying headers now would help but, not needed for those times if that is your only goal) the type headers port size and flow of heads you buy, cam ect. it goes on and on.

nope just low 13s maybe mid 12s fair mpg hoping over 18 but yep thats the fastest i ll go and once i get that im done i was thinking this HSR 700, TF heads 800, hooker headers 1 3/4 or maybe slp for 500, slicks 700 even though i only be goin to the track myabe once a month,exhast 550, chip burning 400, what cam would be good for this setup ive heard zz4 but i dont know nothing about this stuff so im guessin 250-300
Thats a total of= 2950 so lets say 3000 and that was my goal of the amount i wanted to spend on the engine so do you think this would be a good setup to get into low 13s maybe even break into the 12s oo also someone told me who was running 12s with a HSR that you wouldnt really have to modify your stock suspenision all you would need is some slicks but with a modified tpi system you would need about 800-1000 dollar budget on you suspenision alone so is that true do you think that would be a better choice over the modified tpi since i will prob only use my slicks once or twice a month and taking them off and putting them off would be a real b**ch you know do i have to get slicks or are them tires out there that have fantastic traction and i could use as street daily driver tires to and i live in ilinois so would it be a problem with my car test with the HSr on there is there any way to pass with the HSr on there i kno its long and your like what the f*** but please help me out im a newbie kind of and just trying learn as much as i can

Never saw what year you had, if your tpi tbi or carb

I'd do headers, intake (if carb), demon carb, ignition, get port polish on heads, roller rockers, new cam, hell i'd use nx if i was you.
