rs stands for real slow so anything you do will help.
go to tpi from tbi.
hooker 2055 headers with borla cat back.
edelbrock vortec heads.
more cam.
different rear end with posi and 411 gears.
turbo or supercharger.
dump in a 350 - bore and stroke it to a 383 - which is the limits of the tpi from gm.
just about anything you can think of will help. just read the boards and you will see that some of these people have some outstanding rides.
when i was a kid there was a sign at my local speed shop.

"there is no substitute for cubic inches, how fast can you afford to go?

the rule is the same here.

I think, he doesn´t want to have more gain. He wants to disable the speed limiter. You need another chip for your ECM with disabled speed limiter. If you cannot burn your own chips, phone or write to Brian from tbichips.com .

lucky for me my car is tbi alright, thanks for the tips, but you're being a bit vague, you're saying i should get a cam and heads, and you're also saying i should get a 350, which should i do first? i don't have 2000 dollars in my pocket either.

look in the tech article database on this site. it tells you how to wire in a switch to disable the speed limiter.
