2zz headers are pretty good as it gets unless you port and polish them. no sense in wasting money on that. 1. Injen CAI (full, not short ram)2. port and polish headers3. Magnaflow cbe (best out there imo)4. Engine management: either Unichip, Greddy E-Manage, etc. something to tie all the mods together for maximum performance5. if you got the money, TURBO!

how's old UW treating ya these days? there isn't a whole lot of power to be gained on the GT without going FI...but they still have a lot more power over the Base models. I'd go with a CAI, Unichip, and then try lightening up the flywheel, and upgrading your clutch. Then go FI if you can afford it.

hey thanks! is there any increase in mpg or performance with a CAI? UW is cool i guess, there is just alot of a$$holes that hate you cuz you go to wyotech

Quote, originally posted by blue02z »hey thanks! is there any increase in mpg or performance with a CAIWhen I installed my CAI I noticed a slight performance increase (primarilly on hills - less downshifting to keep speed), and that the MPG increased slightly over summer, and decreased over winter (anything past -7C). That was above the normal increase/decrease over the changing seasons.
