Are you against nitrous?, makes a nice reliable driver a ten second beast at the track and when you've had your fill you turn off the bottle and drive home. You would need to upgrade the bottom end with some forged pistons etc. but the really nice thing about nitrous-or most other power adders-is they mask the inefficiency of more streetable parts like higher rear gears etc. But you will still need better gears than 2.76s lol.
