Heads and Cams, Please help!!!!!!!!
I've been going back and forth trying to get some answers about my next project before i waste my money. I'm in the process of buying new heads and cams and posibly a new intake if i have to. hotrod on here told me, that there is a posibility of porting the stock heads that i have now, to have the same flow as new PI aftermarket heads with a .600 lift. He was also saying that there might be a posibility of getting some cobra heads, but he wasn't sure if they would fit.
I'd really like to know all the info i could before i go out and blow $3000 on stuff that i really don't need, or stuff that just wouldn't work for my setup. I know what a lot of you guys are going to say $3000? why not S/C for a few more bucks, well i'm not trying to go that way, i want a N/A sports monster!!! These are my mods to my car so far:
BBK Shorty Headers, SLP X-Pipe, SLP Loudmouth CB, BBK CAI, Diablo Tuner. She's an automatic as well. there are the parts i planned on going with so far: Please take your time and click on the links and let me know if that's going to work?
Heads:

Throttle Body: The BBK combo with 75mm

MAF: 80mm?

Please reply back, and give me all the advice you can. As you can see that's a lot of money just to through away and order the wrong stuff, so if you know a better combo, or where i can get that stuff cheaper please help!!!!

PP Intake = JUNK
that MAF= JUNK
and you will most likely not need injectors until you are over 330rwhp or so...
ok for heads and cams go here.. www.vtengines.com
your stock intake is fine same with stock maf and injectors.
Put the money into your automatic tranny...like a torqe converter and valve body.. go here http://www.bc-automotive.com/

patriot sucks just take my word for it and forget about them i don't feel like digging up all the bad stories about their bad quality.
Well obviously you should do the heads/cams first with the plenum/tb...then get a good dyno tune. Add to that the built auto tranny and your car will feel like a new monster.

Stage 1 CNC ported Romeo core heads. Flow 200/180 cfm. Come completely assembled with Ferrea stainless valves and Comp valve springs. Minus rockers and lifters. Outright priced - no core required.
