Re: (95jeremie)
and just so you know you can build a reliable turbo kit for around $1500 with tuning. less if you take your time and shop around
my kit will be in the 1200-1300 range and will tune to 220-230whp 180-190trq

Re: (95jeremie)

in all honesty i have been debating boost for ages - (will just buy it bit at a time) - or a B20 bottom end with B16 head.
wont be for awhile yet though

no reason to rush it and have to skimp on something
i have been picking up parts for my kit for about 2 years
because I'm like you
this car is nice but not the priority
so... do what you do

x2
Sell both (because they are very overpriced). Buy a used first generation AEM CAI or generic equivalent with a K&N filter.

By "first generation", I meant not their v2. AEM's v2 was not a very big success...

If it were me, i would stick with the AEM.
When I mod my car for power reasons, I want it to look the part. Not look like a stock motor. If i wanted that i wouldnt bother with parts.
Stockish look on the outside. But under the hood, its gonna look good.
