71638, Looking for the right next step...
Posted by beikokujin, Mar-28-04 07:08 PM
Well I've finally resettled here in the dirty south and am finally able to spend some much needed quality time with ma whip.

So, before I moved I installed an AEM CAI, a set of Greddy 4-1 headers, an exhaust, and a B&M short shifter. Where to go next? I read the power stages and I am weary of any electronic type modifications at this time. A UDP is forthcoming for sure but then what? Cam/gears? Port/polish TB?

I'm sure someone out there has followed a mods path similar to mine... is there a sequence that works better than others?

Star turbo charger kit. Basically to get our cars to go even remotely close to fast we need to go turbo.

Would a Star or Hahn turbo system be designed to hook up with a stock TB or will it work with the 60mm TB? Any advantage with the 60mm TB vs stock with a turbo?

It will hook into either With the 60mm t/b you should see better gains when turboed.
