Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!

I think it is because I take it in and out all the time, the rubber has just stretched out, especially at the bottom where it is really thin. It annoys me more then anything.
Donno if sts maes one for a 305 but ive heard good things bout their rear mount.
Mods: Ram Air Intake (CAI)
K&N Filter Polished Throttle Body and MAF Sensor
De-screened MAF Sensor Tightened Throttle Body Cable
Performance Button Setting Changed for Torque 160* HypterTech Thermo
Water Wetter New Distributor, Plugs, Wires
New Water Pump LT4 Knock Sensor Flowmaster 40 Series Muffler TB AirFoil
The STS will bolt up to almost anything...I've heard it's not quite as adjustable as other products...but pretty good for what it is...my biggest complaint is that every application of the STS I've seen reduces you to a single exhaust pipe...cheesy looking...

well theres alot of ways you can look at it, first of all for the 305 i would recumend some new head gaskets, and good Ones... Next figur out what kind of HP range you would like to be in, And what kind of money you would like to spend, everyone has a budget.... Justin

few hundred dollars and turbo never ever go together, better start with bolt-ons if you have a budget like that. FI costs thousands any way you cut it.
If you want to learn about turbo's and some of the theory I would recommend reading "Maximum Boost" by Corky Bell. Very good basic theory, sizing the turbo for the airflow of the engine, heat management, etc. There is a lot to turbo's and as stated above they are not cheap. If you can fab your own headers and charge pipes it can be done for less, but the turbo and all supporting components will add up so don't fool yourself. My kit was a great deal but a lot of the little things really added up. I had no idea how much I had spent until I totalled it up and was shocked to see that number!
