Why don't we start with...

1. What year is your car.

2. What is your budget?

3. What is your Hp goal?

You sure about that 250 HP? 238 HP was what the factory got out of that engine.

No budget. So if I say $100,000 in mods you can front it?

Or lets get more realistic $20,000 in mods. You can front that?

That is all fine and well. But don't ever recommend VMS in any instance. Period. They suck. Joking or not joking.

*off topic* Why do they suck? The parts they offer seem to be quality enough. Priced way to high, but if they were that bad I dont think they would be around? I could be wrong though, but would like more info on why you dont like them?

Their parts are not quality. If you had seen a previous post on here linked from another forum. Their customer service is awful as well.
