over x-mas break im planning on doing a lot of modding to my 90 na . i plan on removing my a/c , 6-ports , and cruise control . installing an e-fan , installing an msd6a , jef card cold air intake w/ K&N extreme filter , fd or tII FP, silicone vac hoses , and sending injectors to rc engineering . im aslo getting my act street/strip clutch, steel braided clutch line, and remanufactured slave and master cylinders installed by a shop . i will aslo be performing the atf trick . first off wish me luck . should i do anything else ? i have a high flow cat so im not gonna remove my air pump b/c i think it will kill the cat , and since the air pump stays doesnt the acv also have to stay in ? and what about removing the bac ? any benefits in that ? i cant think of anything else im doing but if you have any suggestions im listening . oh yeah p/s stays ..lol call me a wus if you'd like ..thats one luxury i enjoy the hell out of . i hope i get a lot of replies on this one .

Damn, your going to have a completely different FC!! Ok, in my opinion:

1. A/C - remove

2. 6-ports - more top end, loss of low end but not too noticable, lose them

3. cruise control - whats wrong with cruise?!

4. e-fan - make sure your alternator is good

As for the rest, sounds good. Let me know how RC Engineering does with your injectors. Been thinking of sending mine to them. From what I've gathered I believe you need your BAC; cleaning it helps though. Which ACT clutch are you getting? I was going to go with the 6-puck one but am not sure about everyday driving with it. Good luck with everything.

well the switch on the cluster just fell apart into peices and since i never used the cruise control much im just gonna toss it . if i decide i want it back i'll slap it back on . i have the ACT streep/strip clutch . i dont see why you'd need anything more than the act street/strip on a mildly tuned na fc , unless you plan on bridge or peripheral porting it i'd get the street/strip . what do you use to clean the bac .. i recently bought one off of someone parting out their car and they said it was good , but i guess i'll clean it up before i put it on .
