long as ur car is under tuned you be fine for a while... just gonna need more cooling mods.. the meth does amazing thats my next buy... you have to keep the s/c cold.. it wont work to the fullest if its too hot.. thats why meth cools it down a lot more then the h/e and the dual bypass

You dont... but Its not always bad you know? I have 42s and a 2.8, a little undertuned and ive been doing fine... If you look around though you might be able to individually get those parts for about 550 all together, including about 150 for a tune.

That's not bad with labor and everything, but the guy on here from Street Dreamz is such a jackass I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't as good as he thinks he is. (see sig)

He told you that you wouldn't need a bigger exhaust with his stage 4? >___________>

The car will run fine, but you'll gain a good amount of power from upgrading.

That's fair for everything. Well...depends on if he knows what he's doing with hp tuners.

go with the 2.8 pulley. get a h/e & dual pass w/ option b for your cooling mods. then buy a meth kit and get dyno tuned again.

The 700 is not bad but if you spend some time around th eforums and pick stuff up used you can come in at less than half that number if you install it yourself and for about 700 you could also buy a new header and downpipe

I paid

25 for belt (used 10k miles)
50 for modular 2.7 pulley (nates, used but never actually installed)
143 for 60lb injectors (10k miles)
100 for tune (local HP tuner)

thats only $328

then I bought the clear image header and 3" catless downpipe combo for only 335 shipped

thats less than $700, I have only had the car about 5 weeks and was able to piece all this together lol
