sounds like it is about time for a little FI. save a tad more and drop in a ATI procharger Super Charger. it will be about 1000 or so more, but is about the only thing left that is worth the power gain now.

That's what he is shooting for next summer. I think he is pretty limited to like 2000-2500 max.
He wants to finish up the little things before he leaves to college. Anything that will help in long run...(any suspension stuff?) How beneficial are headers for his car? I know on mine they are great (90 LX), but I think his are more effcient. Thanks, DoranW
