You still want to start with:
good service to make sure everyings at its best, maybe check its making standard power first. then
Decent intake
Exhaust
header
uprated brakes
coilovers
strut braces
then think about more engine mods

The way to improve any car that is being used on the street is to add modifications furtherest from the motor and get closer...intake, exhaust, cams, pistons...and so on. Make sure for anything other than intake and exhaust you have the car professionally tuned. gl

you realy think so??

the price of a stock cam itr or ctr not even aftermarket is going to be what 300?? plus a tune atleast in chicago would be about 300-400 for what 10-15whp lol not at all

i can put together a decent turbo setup and get it tuned with a chipped ecu for probly under 2k and that will probly net about 250whp thats going to be over 100 more whp then stock for only what 1300 more then a cam

boost is the best bang for the buck and once you have a setup made you can do upgrades here and there to it to squeeze out a little more power or build a block on the side to throw in later and crank up the boost

ummm you know your bore is the same as a gsr dont you? the best way to go about this would be to swap your bottom end for a ls bottom end and just do lsvtec or maybe a b18c bottom end if you can find one in good condition then you dont get the thinner cylinder walls of a 84mm bore pluss you save your self having to buy pistons


and as far as an obd0 chipped ecu lol its a waste just convert to obd1 turbo edit blows (probly opening my self up to alot of **** talking lol)
