Ladies and Gentlemen, where do I start?


2SS/RS.

Disclaimer: California Resident, so I have to deal with frequent 5yr smog checks. With moderate mechanical knowledge.

My goal is 500rwhp street tame.

And since I plan on keeping this car for 5years or more I am going to be investing quite a bit into it so that it remains a competitor against the bullshit "I have to have the latest and greatest LA residents."

Question: Where do I begin? Obviously I would like to start with the CAI then from headers to exhaust. (It will have to be shorties here in California, thinking Kooks or Borla, with Borla S Type in the rear)

So the biggest question is blower or cams, or both? and If so in which order?

How much work/cost is involved in the installation of a SC or a Cam?

How much additional parts are needed for either/or?

I am half german so I like to methodically plan and save/invest appropiately and definitely install mods in a logical progression, instead of just tossing on a cam/blower with stock headers and exhaust.

So for all of you veterans out there, can you offer me a smart order in which I proceed, finacially and logically in order to achieve my goal of 500rwhp.

And no NOS.

Thank you very much for your time in reading this!
