Anyways you can spent thousands of dollars on simple "bolt on mods". Like High-flow cats/testpipes, headers, ypipe,exhausts, plenum/spacer, intakes. And that will probably get you to 40-60HP to the wheel AT MOST. If your going to drop $5000 on these simple mods, might as well go FI. You will get 5x-8x what you can gain on the bolt on mods. But if your those type of people who want to car to sound mean and aggresive, these bolt on mods will do the trick!

Thanks everyone,
Turbos and superchargers sound very tempting, but, I gotta pay for college some time.
I'll just stick with the NA stuff.
Since it seems that I won't be getting alot more power out of the VQ, I'll just post my order with HRE tommrow....

your also being an optimist. lets work with the high end of one and the low end of the other, or the low end of one and the high end of the other (i.e. 60hp x 5 and 40hp x 8). that's a 300hp to 320hp gain. baselining around 220 - 240whp. that would net you around 560hp at most. sounds like a greddy tt setup to me.

So I could get a Greddy TT setup w/ stock everything else? I may need to rethink my planned mods. Maybe I'll just stick with added sound for now and go w/ a Z tube. I've already got a JW pop charger.
Most, if not all FI applications are safe if tuned properly. In the same regard, most FI applications are dangerous if tuned improperly. You get the picture....
Thats why I drove from Florida to North Carolina to have CP Racing install and tune by Vortech. It was certainly worth it...
