What bolt-on's am I missing?
Want to know exactly what other bolt-ons I'm missing. Getting a TI intake and BAMA tune within the next month or 2 and possibly underdrive pulley's later on. Is there any other bolt-on I can do that I forgot about or don't know about? My mods r in my sig. Turbo/supercharger, and heads/camr out of the ? do to costs. Also, ifu guysgotany other possible weight reduction ideas ( I did the spare/jack/trunk carpet removal, possibly doingbmr front sway/radiator replacement kit, no rear seat delete-need em). And is there any other suspension mods that would help my acceleration/ET/weighttransfer other than what I have(in sig-Rear upper and lower control arms, subframe connectors, t-lok)?Any ideasor info to any of these ?'sisgreatly appreciated!

Oh must have missed it. There is a company called Zabteck Performance who makes TBs for our engines. Their piece is very new, but the cool part about them is that they use the factory electronics, so you dont have to worry about all the crap that comes along with aftermarket TBs. The test unit showed 7rwhp on an Xcharged car, and the unit they have for sale now flows something like 20cfm's more than the test unit. Also, there was with no tune and apparently leaned the car out a little, so with it tuned, it could have probably made ~11rwhp. So with a tune, plus the 20cfm's more than the tester, I bet an F/I car could see a pretty significant gain. I am not sure how well it would perform over the stock TB on a N/A car, could be worth a few ponies.
