Try Techinfo for starters. 180° thermostat, and a tranny cooler are usually the first two we suggest. Insurance first, then speed.

You're Series II, so there's alot available for you. You ask, we'll get you there!

Want more ooommppphhh? Either get an intake or chop up your airbox, depending on what your budget is.

I gutted the airbox on mine, and it did make a noticeable (or potentially psychosomatic I suppose) difference.

Honestly, went from chirping the tires to making smoke when I ropped it from a standing start, and great passing power. Haven't been able to test 0 - 60 yet (Minneapolis PD seems to be everywhere lately)
