Fat-Tony Legacy Donating Member 5,364 Member For: 20y 6m 5d Posted 30/04/07 09:52 AM Posted 30/04/07 09:52 AM Depends on the tuner, some have bigger increases than others, I have seen GT's run into a 12 sec 1/4 (tune only), some can't even pull lower than 11's

I was thinking about a shaker as well but I have spoken to people that have fitted them and got no noticable gains. Put your money towards a CAI and a flash tuner with a custom tune. This should cost you about $2K and net you 40 - 50 RWKW and better fuel economy to boot. A good tuner will also get a lot more bottom end torque with this set up.Good luck with your mods.Regards Bob
