need some feedback... thanks

im loooking to tune my car up so it runs rite. i want my engine to last for as long as it can because when it blows i want to rebuild it for turbo and not just to rebuild to get it running again. ive been lookin for parts at rotary performance and at racing beat (if anyone knows a better site please inform me.) and so far i came up with this list. i want to know if these products really work. if you guys know anything that would help me out with this situation please let me know thanks.

Filter mag - A magnet drain plug will accomplish the same thing.

Those “tornado” things give almost no help at low throttle, and they block flow & rob power at high throttle.

are you n/a now? anything you do to your n/a engine will not be swapped to a t2 engine except maybe a catback system, pd mod or something of that nature. I'm in the process of doing a s5 t2 swap from my s4 n/a and I've had to buy all new stuff cept for the stuff i just mentioned. PD mod is HUGE!!! DO IT!!! in archive, marren retrofit. Later I'll be posting how to do the marren retrofit on a s5 t2 block, not just the n/a setup like what is in the archive.

PD = pulsation dampner The PDs on 7's have been known to spew fuel and burn your car down. So clousbourne wrote a guide to install Marren Fuel Dampner on your 7. Total cost is about $200.00 I'd say. http://www.injector.com/fueldampers.php has the PD on that website, then you'll have to buy the list of stuff from summitracing.com to install it on your rails. There is a little bit of modifications you have to do to the rail, such as moving the banjo bolt from one side of the rail to the other, but thats about it. I just ordered the parts I need to install it on my s5 t2 block and I'll post the differences when I have it installed.
