I was wondering on people thouths about this.
I have:

turbo back
HKS intake
Boost controller @21psi
Fuel pump
Dynoflash

I just purchased the greddy Vspec intercooler with lower pipes and the upper pipes from greddy for a full core and pipe set. But I am having second thoughts about putting it in because I will never upgrade the turbo.

Should I just get rid of it and get cams instead?
Input appreciated.

My goal is about 320-350whp
Thanks

 

How about both? Cams are going to make a much bigger difference. Expect a +-3mph gain or so.

 

Yeah, eventually maybe...but I am strapped for $$ now
I just want to know what is the better mod. I heard intercoolers on stock turbo cars dont make a big difference.

 

Cams will definately make a bigger difference than the Intercooler at your level.

 

thanks
what type of hp am I looking at with cams for my mods and the I/C setup with my mods roughly?

 

Cams no questions asked, hands down, end of story !

 

Have no idea on dyno numbers and I have no idea how good your dynoflash tune is etc but I would say with good tuning on pump gas and around 21psi you will see 110-111 mph trap speeds.

 

thanks guys!

 

cams,unless your in a hot town

 

definitely cams

 

Right on.

 

Thanks for the input and votes, I will be selling my intercooler setup once I get it in

Stock IC is pretty good from what I can tell...the cams would be less money and would give you more power.

 

Sorry to sound pissed, but this has been covered soooooooo much. The stock ic is really good. Major tuners have noticed very little gains with a aftermarket ic. You will feel the power with the cams. The only thing the ic will do is look good up front. By the way if your thinking about the Greddy V-Spl think again it's not that much better than stock plus it's tube and fin

 

i too was in this situation.... i chose to get the R SPL ic and lower pipes.. reason behind this is that if i get the that, the upper pipe, smaller battery, grounding kit, injectors, and FPR i'll be ready to get the cams, gears, and headstuds... i'm the kinda of person to mod something in a specific order so i don't have to "back up" and upgrade something that i'm maxing out... besides, i'm not close to a dyno so making trips to Houston is gonna be kept at a minimum...
