Default thinking of new engine mods to do...suggestion?

Hi all, I've done the full suspension setup/tire mods and wanna go back to revisit the engine bay

So far I only have AEM CAI, new plugs, wires. I was thinking of Cam Gears or a Fuel Pressure Regulator...do these make any noticeable difference? what's next without going induction or turbo (well not yet anyways)

Thanks

I would get a good H/C/E setup before you get cams & cams gears. Otherwise you will probably need to retune them for peak performance once you get h/c/e, and dyno time is expensive.

Def Cams, or a built head if you have the loot. As long as everything is set up right, you can put off Dyno tuning until you get the header, Exh, etc.
Even a Throttle body, or Skunk Manifold.
I dont know jack about Cam Gear settings, so I have no insight there, sorry dude

Work on your bolt-on's before you go further, because they will compliment your cams. Get a nice JDM or 2.5" header (JDM ITR/JDM DC, Spoon, Mugen, Hytech, etc.) and a 2.5" exhaust system. Once you have the basics you'll be ready for cams, but get the basics down before you proceed.

Well it all depends...if you want to go FI than just save up for that. If you plan on going NA then I would suggest a 2.5 inch exhaust system with a JDM header. Then I would go with the fpr and gauge, and cam gears, then cams, then vafc and tuning. Unless you want a more serious NA setup.
