Ok, I have a few random questions that I cannot seem to get a clear answer on. I have done searches and found related info, or contradicting answers...anyway here they are:

I have a 1994 sc300 w/ 125kmiles K&N, heatshield, and AC mufflers

Underdrive pullys - are they worth the minimal power gains for the stress it can put on the engine.

flexalite fans - which model number would i need from summitracing, is it beneficial (wieght saving? running cooler?) will it fit in stock without any mods? I have a 500s rockford amp running a 12w6, will my alternator be ok?

SAFC- is this mod add noticable power on an sc3 with just an k&N, heatshield, and mufflers? which model would I get to fit on my car, and where could this be obtained. Also would i need to find a good lexus mechanic to fine tune all the settings on this?

On my dashboard the lights that light up the gas level (on the right bottom corner) and the light that shows 0-60mph (left side of the dash) Does anyone know where i could get these bulbs...how much would they cost... and could i install myself?

Will my car sound too ricey if i take off the resonators? My mufflers gave a good deep tone, but I want a little more sound. When I asked the mechanic they quoted me at $100 just to cut off the resonators and put pipe there....sounds a little procey to me... Also if i was to replace the catback pipes all togehter what diameter would I want to use for a NA sc3?

Any suggestions on power mods for the car that are under $450 total being that I am on a pretty low budget.

If any of the gurus can help me out here I would appreciate it so much.

thanks so much

 

do you have pictures of the mufflers you have? how loud are they? sorry, i don't know the answers to your questions.

 

nah sorry i dont have a digicam, so no pics. I could prolly get some; however I did buy them from someone on the CL forums. They are called AC designs mufflers and I can honestly say they are the best looking mufflers I have ever seen on a sc3. I have seen the pics of the greddy or the expensive titanium and I really do think these look better. The tone is deep and not at all ricey, it gets a pretty throaty but im just looking for something a little louder ( i used to have a v8 mustang with 2 chamber flowmasters ). Also keep in mind i still have the stock resonators on the car.

I picked these up used and in great condition for $125 shipped and it was the best 125 i ever spent

 

i dont get it, you got the muffler because it sounds nice?
i think thats a ricey idea haha
its not like you gain any hp from it, maybe 1-2hp hah.
i really dont see why you should get all those junk for. SAFC wont do much, if your head isnt built.
pullys add hp? its a myth for consummer to buy those crap.
and when you take off your resonators, it will be alittle louder, almost ricey.

remember this, bolt on does crap in performace on a stock motor, if you want to see good hp gain out of those bolt on, you need to start from the inside out, working on the motor first.
