IMHO Alky kit. Probably te best gain for the money and one of the safest. More boost, timing advance, and no detonation. PD tunnig had the best price I've found so far with install included....

Save Cams For After. 4g63 Already Has Strong Gearing.
+1 Great advice.

Make sure to get a huge FMIC, shiny IC pipes, mini battery, 1000cc injectors, and a 9.8 hotside replacement, too.

Evo#1, I would normally tell you to go screw yourself and search, since this sort of thing has been asked a zillion times...and has been answered a zillion times, but I'm alarmed at all the poor answers where people gave the wrong advice or didn't pay attention to your DETAILS.

Here is my suggestion for how to use that $2000:

1) Hallman Pro MBC - $80
2) JDM MR DV - $120
3) Walbro 255lph Fuel Pump (don't need the kit) - $80
4) Cams (your choice of duration and brand) - $550
5) CUSTOM FLASH (do not do a mail-in for these mods) - $400
6) Lower Intercooler Pipe (LICP) - $200 (might be 125, I forget)
7) Alky Kit - $400 (allows you to run 23-24psi daily on pump gas)
8) OPTIONAL - K&N or Works drop-in filter - $60-80

This totals to $1830-$1910 and does not include shipping, so I figure that will put you near $2000. This combination of mods will DEFINITELY put you at 350whp on a Dynojet and will be reliable with no stalling or idling issues.

Where can I get a alky kit for $400
