A PM would have been sufficient, rather than once again unearthing a Pre-Cambrian era fossil of a thread...

I agree with you Kento, but I'd rather see an old thread bumped than a new thread with dumb questions.

Wow Jim, thanks for the info. Its a little discouraging when you mentioned knowing someone who blew his motor at stock boost, tuned by a reputable tuner though.

No point....too bad they can't lock old threads so you can only read them. It really gets interesting when people try to buy parts off cars two and three years ago.

i do have one thing to add about the fuel system...would changing the primaries from the stock 550's to the GSL-SE 680's help...i know some do it on the TII's and was wondering if some FD's have this done also. (would help if youre low on money for higher cc injectors right? especially if you have a set of BNRs?)

upgrade intercooler

radiator

get under drive pulleys for water pump and alternator

down pipe & exhaust

after market computer (apex power)

would this be a good order to still maintain the cars reliability?

any other order or things you might add beforehand?

or after that?
