Hi all,
Been into bonnies for along time, I've owned my 94 fo 2 years now and am thinkin of doing some serious mods to it. Money is tight though (still in collage) so it'* a work in progress. I welcome all coments and sugestions ect. I'd like to start by asking:
Whats the best 1st preformance mod?
What'* the best Style mod?

Thanks for all you input

Welcome...are you Supercharged or not?

Before the "go fast" mods, get a 180T-stat and a tranny cooler.
Protect the car before going crazy with mods.

Best style mod, window tints, rims ($$$) and better lighting.

Have fun

Greetings Slick,

Here is a pretty good generic article on first mods found in the techinfo section...

http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/techinfo/?article=52

I would definately protect the car first then go with what you can afford. If your SC'd then the pulley is the best HP for the buck mod. Glad to have you aboard.

Welcome to the Club! That Techinfo link is good stuff, check it out.
For a cheap peformance mod, try the airbox gut. As for the style, there'* plenty of things to do, check to see what others have done.

Thanks for all the tips,

and my bonneis has a 3800 Series1 So I'm thinking of an drivetrain swap.
I've been told that alot of the parts for the seriesI works on the seriesII but I know gm changed the block to reduce weight. anyone out there had sucess w/a seriesI?

Series I L67 or Series I L27? The L67 is Supercharged and the L27 is Naturally Aspirated.
