How about a driving school? It'll make you faster than any mod.

BTW, ditch the BOV (search for the HKS).

Keep the blow off valve. It makes me feel good to know there are a few ix's out there I can bully around. In all seriousness, cams should run you $350-$500 and the install should be no more than $200 from most installers.It can be done in less than an hour easily.

ok well i went to ams today and even he said that my numbers were low because of the injen intake he said you get more power with the stock air box than with the injen. he said with the intercooler im pushin 300 - 305 now. and that i will gain 15 more hp with the stock air box with a k&n filter. but i asked him what he suggested that should be my next mod. he said to get the tomei cams for 450 and head studs for 190 and with install and a retune the total came out to be $950.00, and i will gain 35 - 40 whp and 25 - 30 more tq and will be a stage 3 evo.

I used to be on the stock airbox bandwagon myself.If what you have typed above is true, please tell me how I made more power after switching out the stock intake setup with drop-in for the injen intake/uicp alone. I guess you have to try things yourself instead of always believing what you hear. Again, no other mods were done.Injen intake/uicp alone and my gains were almost 10whp over the stock setup.Maybe my stock setup was defective or leaking? Who knows. Do what works for you.Thats something youll learn with this car.Many routes to follow.Sorry for getting

Suspension or brakes perhaps. If you're focusing on power maybe upgrading or porting your throttle body and intake manifold. Depending on it's availability, changing over to E85, all you'd need are injectors and a tune. Someone already suggested the EPM o2 housing. Perhaps under hood shifter bushings and drive line bushings. The list could go on and on.
