Default What do i do next?some help:)

My mods are listed at the bottom. So whats next, maybe something little maybe save for something big, i dont know? I just want to hear some suggestions from u people. My mechanic was saying i should go with a fuel preesure regulator, so he can tune my top end better. Umm what else, ohh i wanted to save for a rev hard turbo kit and just say ok im done hehe, but i know im never done. What about a fuel rail, worthless? Im talking engine wise so if u have any suggestions plz feel free, thx.

Why waste money building NA if you are just going to turbo it? Next mod should be driver mod, at the strip or a real track (road racing).

Don't get a fuel rail. The stock is more than good enough unless you want a new one for the bling. A SAFC would be a waste of money if you're going turbo. If you really want to go turbo, save up for it now. Most other things you can do to your engine now will be redone with your turbo.

Like txhatch said, do suspension mods and go autocrossing. It's incredble fun.

Tuning his car when he's going to go turbo soon is a waste of a lot of money since he'll have to do it again once the turbo is in since it changes everything in your timing and air/fuel ratio.

I'd focus on chassis, brake & suspension upgrades for the time being..h:
You do plan to turn and stop well, right?

On the subject of power, though: Since those cams and ECU are better suited for an N/A application IMHO, I'd look into Crower's line of B-Series stroker kits....running up to 2.26 litres in displacement. :eek3:

You'll need to decide on your power goals and budget soon, before you take the motor much further.

My 2.7Ą.

I think he means learn how to drive the car to it's current potential before adding more potential.

Go to some Autocrosses, HPDE days, performance driving schools, etc.

If you do ANY of these, especially more than once, you'll be amazed at how much more potential there is in your car, compared to what you're capable of right now. It's also a great and SAFE way to push both you and your car without risking someone else, while you learn on the streets.
