Upgrade question opinions

Hey guys I have a few questions. So I was in the idea of purchasing zzp ported head and stg2 cams and buying a k04R to add to my car. I already have a upgraded ic and charge piping and sri with 3" zzp exhaust. Any opinions will help and will the interals be okay with this build ? Thanks again. I appricate it

Internals will be fine
Get stage3 cams
Dont forget valvesprings
Get 3 or 4 angle valves to make good power
Some people port heads for cheaper but zzp is also great

Youll make more power cheaper by running a different turbo instead of everything you listed
K04+ is for the birds, use it as a rape whistle

Stage 3 cams would necessitate a large turbo like a PTE6262 or S259 ET to take full advantage of it.

Quick question. What do you mean by 3 or 4 angle valve to make power, also the bird and rape whistle reference ? Hahah thanks again

Sorry meant 3 or 5 angle

The valves flow air through them better if you have a machine shop grind the edges a few times at different angles. Smoother traveling air = more power. Maybe not a ton of power but worth it.

For the birds:

Turbos sound like whistles. You will get 'raped' (i.e., beaten in a race very badly) running that turbo so upgrade.

Just put on a zfr. U will pay less than the zzp head and cams and k04 and u will make more power. If u wanna spend money get zfr and tranny with 4.45 gears. Then ill be spending money right. After those do the other stuff if u need more power. I'm make over 410whp with zfr on stock motor.

Disregard the mods you listed.
Buy ZZP fuel lobe cams, opel injectors, ZFR, and start saving for a new transmission.
