what are your goals? Once you know what you are trying to accomplish its easier to pick the right parts...that being said, make sure you dont skimp on fuel management! good luck

Might want to upgrade your exhaust if you hadn't planned to. The stock exhaust will be very restrictive and will keep you from making power.

Whatever you decide to do, read everything you can and understand how everything works before purchasing parts. I would recommend starting in the FAQ section:
