i say boost but liek u said u wanan stay n/a

toda make a good header and u could invest in come after market cams.. that would be a nice bump u could sleeve the block 2 a 2liter that will give u liek 10-15 hp just buy going 84mm. but thats pricy and reqiers new pistons but if u do that u can bump up ur compression

what you need to do is invest in a custom header and some aftermarket cams Also if you want to make your times drop alot get a final drive ratio as well! It will shed some serious time but will cost you in your top speed.

are you running a stock IM/ TB? get a lightened flywheel, and a 476 FD/ LSD, some kind of ECM controll unit would be beneficial

I been looking around and i found the folowing parts:
set of arias pistons 85mm bore 13:1 cp, and howards aluminuim racing rods for a 93mm crank. I considering buying them but i want to ask you'll about it first.

Also a friend of mine is selling me a ctr tranny.

and last do you think i should get rid of the apexi power command unit and go with something else.

if the power fc is working fine i see no reason to replace it.

also, you do realize what you'll have to do in order to run those pistons and rods dont you?

Also lighter wheels and unsprun weight helps alot. Stripping is also an option
