Default Just installed header and exhaust .What to do next ?

I have a 97 DOHC Del Sol . I installed a K&N drop in filter ,A greddy header ,and tanabe g exhaust . I don`t know what to do next .I was thinking of a fuel regulator and a test pipe . I already have the suspension done . I`m short on cash due to the last purchse so cost is a factor .

Save your money and then get some serious power (i.e. turbo, or supercharger) or you could just get a swap. Just remember, in order to become really fast you have to SAVE your money. Speed cost money.

Hey! How do you like the GReddy header?? I was looking at that, the DC stainless and the JG. Did you do all three mods at once? Let me know about that header though.

I'd say get a fuel regulator and gauge (about 80 bucks for a B&M or Vortech combo), sprockets, VAFC and a dyno session......for your next couple of mods, if you're keeping it on the motor.

I installed the the header and exaust at the same time .I noticed a better response on the bottom end and alot more power up at 7k to 8k rpm .One thing about the greddy stainless it looks great .
