ok so my warranty is finished its kinda a good thing but still a bad thing at the same time. any way my next step is going to be a cooling mod most likely H/E, still thinking about water/meth who knows. Any way my question is after the h/e i want to go stage two since i dont have to worry about the warranty any more what is the best way to go about doing this. also is stage 2 what i should be doing or should i move up.
ok so how do i gt this custom tune i dont really have any shops around here that can tune my car for me and as far as all the upgrades i think i can do them my self. but who do i go to for the tune.
so where would you guys say i should buy the parts by parts i mean injectors, belt, pulley what else am i missing please let me know and where should i get it from since the dealer is crazy expensive.
pulley from smoothflowpullies.com
you can fine injectors used in the classifieds section on this forum
belt from cobalt addiciton.
do you have any mods right now?

the only thing i have is an Injen CAI, ok so i pretty much need all the information i can get i have no idea what kind of custom setup i should run so treat my car like you would yours what would you do. what size pulley, and injectors should i use.
I wouldn't even do a pulley yet. I'd get a set of 42lb injectors, get a new front mounted heat exchanger, get rid of that crappy filler neck for your intercooler system and replace it with a reservoir(hatrickstu's cooling mod if you do a search), then I'd get a header and dp, throw water/meth injection on there, and get a custom tune.
Then later, once you get used to that much power, add a pulley that is sized to your driving style and how much you rev the car. You don't want to overspin the blower.
Reason I'd wait on the pulley is because you want to solve all your heat issues early, so that when you do throw on a pulley, you won't have major heat issues and possibly blow the car up from beating on it too much.
I promise you'll trap over 100mph in the quarter easy with all those mods well before you do a pulley swap.

so my next steps is the h/e, 42lbs injectors, header and dp, then water/meth. where if i get these mods in this order will i need the tune just for the injectors or for the header and dp as well? after all this then move for a smaller pulley if i still feel the need for one.
Really thanks that will save me some money then, thanks alot for all your help you guys are great at answering all my questions. First things first im going to be following flash13brandon's guide on the h/e then ill move on to continue with my lest. Thanks again guys for the help.
lol hell yea man i read through the entire thing and i like what i saw it works great and its cheap i mean you cant go wrong, but i read something about there being two different size h/e what one do you think i should get?
