Default My plans give me some input.

So here is my mod list so far as far as bolt ons:
Longtubes
O/R H
Flowmaster 44s
FRPP 4.10s
CAI
Tune
Upper intake
75mm TB

My plans are to grab another set of PI heads (since my car is DD) and get them ported then replace the springs with some higher compression ones, throw some HI-Tech stage 2 cams in there, and spray the car with a 125 shot on track days. I will also be switching to a tubular K member, mach 1 axles, subframe connectors, U/L Control arms, and sticky tires. My goal is 300rwhp NA and 400+ on the hit. Opinions? Citicism? Everything is always appreciated.

Sound pretty good to me! That's pretty much where i'm at, minus the heads and cams. Although i'll be doing cams soon.

Sounds great! Make sure you get a dyno tune after all that work (I doubt you needed me to tell you that though).

The new K member will shed some weight, more weight reduction on top of that couldn't hurt either. Not sure how far you want to take it since you drive it daily..

I'd look into doing the trickflow heads over having someone port a set of PIs. Also, I'd keep an eye on the amount of torque your throwing at the motor with these mods AND a 125 shot. If you have a good tuner I think you'll easily get the 300rw out of it NA.

Trickflows are just outrageous (2k I could have a blower!) Ported would only run me about 500. Your def correct about the shot I may go to a 100 shot and tune the car for nitrous.

why not forget the N20 and the K member and the port and save a little more for a used blower setup? Then you would have your suspension work and cams and a blower. Just what i would do

Is there a difference between the mach1 axles and the GTs? I would just get some moser 31 splines, it's what I have in mine.
