I dont think u guys are understanding me. No nos super charge turbo charge stuff, I feel like thats cheating. I want strickly to build my engine up and car up to gain about 100 more horses. Not all at once, over time. Throw this in throw that in, and bam got 325 hp. I'm asking u guys this what parts and or brands etc would u recomend me doing this and in what order and average range of prices thanks!

maf, throttle body, heads, cam, intake, probably injectors if you have 19s and do get some gears

can't go wrong with an afr head. people say good things about the new twisted wedge heads too.

and it is only cheating when you have 2 power adders

the thing about it is, you will need to do everything listed at one time.

If it were me and on a budget, I would do 1.7 rockers, maf and throttle body first. It won't have big gains but, remove the exhaust bump on the heads and your in business.

Then do the cam, heads and intake.

full bolt on's and full exhaust got me 230hp to the wheel............ (and my stock heads are ported!)


with my experience, i wont recommend doing bolt on's first anymore. Save up and get those POS heads off the car ASAP.

I personally like trickflow twisted wedge heads.

with no nitrous there really isn't a cheap way to add 100hp, but like people are saying you're gonna need a full head/cam/intake swap with supporting mods and a tune. And then after all that money and time you're going to wish you had just went with a power adder in the first place. Ask me how I know lol.
