Default h22a1; Needs more high end power, what to do?

as title stated, i would like to know some advice how to get better high end. Reason for this curiosity is because 3rd gears is kinda long after all and it doesnt pull hard enough to high end. thanks

big cams wont really help if he dosent have the compression for them...

NA might get u 230 whp..and that is after spending a shitload of money..

5000 for a complete build with boost..and u can run 400whp+. want more top end? get a bigger turbo or up the boost. with 5000..it might be extra, but i am talking about complete build..bottom end, tuning, yadda yadda..4000 might be more than enough.

a good 4-1 header will yield a lot of top end RMF or SMSP is the only way to go imo.

not familiar with RMF or SMSP. is it a brand name headers? Where can i find it? i think header would be good enough. I just want enough top end power without costly.

SMSP is probably the best you can get, also goes for like $1000.00 and the RMF is my personal favorite which goes for about $750.....search on here to find out more about them.

They sell for like $300 don't they. So this is a knock off from a company many don't like to much.
