    -Borla xr-1
    -8.5mm wire, ngk tr6 plugs
    -CAI

    that's about it unless you want to start getting into tuning engine mods, or suspension. No dont use a spacer

        I thought you were building a turbo setup...

        Before going F/I:

        Bolt-ons: Gears and limited slip, aluminum driveshaft, 2.5" or 3" exhaust piping, tune, short throw, cam and internals.

        Not really performance-based, but will help to distribute power.

        Suspension: Shocks, springs, sway bars, moog LCA bushings, quality tires, and don't forget good brake pads.

                Re: What should be my next step?

                well i have 3" exhaust and a hurst short shifter with a custom stick already... i knew i was forgetting to list something

                i was going turbo, but i cant get anyone to make me the y pipe from the headers to the turbo flange, and i got someone to offer me 3x as much as i paid for the turbo kit, so i think its going to end up being sold tomorrow

                i totally forgot about heads and cams though, that will be my next step

                    go for full bolt-ons, whisper lid, suspension, then heads/cam.

                    i used to not be a believer in an upgraded suspension but it's done a world of difference for mine...i agree with Pace 100%

                    much work to still be done sir.

                      This is what will happen to you without tires/suspension.

                      It's not fun having all that power with no way to plant it. You'd think it'd be sweet focusing on the engine but it's totally not.
