125 bucks to summitt...

for my bday yesterday my parents got me 125 dollar gift certificate to summitt and i was just wondering if yall had any suggestions on what to buy, i really only wanna spend that 125 and not too much more of my own money. i looked for a shift kit but i havent found one for the 700R4 if anyone could find the part # thatd be cool cuz apparently im inept. anyways i was thinking about a shift kit or maybe a fuel pump or possibly a high flow cat cuz my current one is gutted and im gonna need to pass inspection (legally), about replacing the cat, if i buy a universal should it just bolt on in or am i gonna have to possibly have some pipe welded in too? any ideas would be great thanks, the mods i have are in my sig.

I would suggest saving it for now and when you get a little more go with tsome headers. However, I know that money will burn a hole in your pocket. I would maybe try to muster up a little more money and get a set of sub frame connectors. If not look into the TBI strut tower brace.

Yea. Your shifts will be firmer. Check out the Drivetrian board for some more opinions on it. you may want to try a few searches first.

i like mine, just make sure you adjust your TV cable right after you put it in. Breaks the back end loose at like 40-45 w/ my 2.73's. Its a bitch to install though, dont let them tell you under an hour, everyone i've talked to says 11-12 hours, and it took me 12.5 by the time i had everything cleanedup. If you do go that route though, make sure you get a drain plug kit and a new filter. You'll be up to about $50 if you factor new fluid into that also.
