Question mod help - what next?

i've reached the point where i'm not quite sure what to do for my next performance mod. i'm *trying* to keep it a street legal daily driver here in california as well as NA (maybe FI when the warranty runs out.... )

my current mods are in the signature. headers? grounding kit? porting/polishing and headers? change my CAI to a popcharger/Z-tube? any other ideas?

Do a full grounding kit including ECU and Tranny.
Look into a Technosquare ECU re-flash (will have to go back when/if you go FI)
I doubt cats will keep you legal.
Headers are a good mod if you get the right ones but the HP/$ is pretty low when you consider install (or DIY to save a lot).
CAI will yeild a little more HP than a popcharger so keep what you have.

I've been told CAIs give more low-end, while popchargers give more high-end. Either way, I know it's close. What do you mean right headers? I was looking at DC Sports because of the reputation and being CARB legal; if they're not Crawfords, I'll be putting them in myself.

Just don't get cheap headers and do some research first.
If you get DC get a dyno before and after and let us know. I have never seen someone actually post real results with those. I was going to get Alphawerks headers because I can install them myself and I have seen real gains with them.
