Xede or reflash with boost control.

The car wakes up at higher rpm and just becomes much more fun to drive. And get a boost gauge.

Also install is a snap.

Here's exactly what I'm going to do:

Buschur Cat-back: $450
Buschur Manual Boost Controller: $ 75
K&N Drop-in: $ 75
DynoFlash mail flash: $199 (until xmas - $250 after)
----------------------------------------------------
Total: $850

Al just did a DynoFlash on a car with this setup (minus the filter) and the car pulled 290 whp with 300 ft/lbs tourque. That sounds like a new bang for the buck package to me.

I would wager that a TB exhaust and SAFC would probably suffice for decent power gains for under $1000.

If you don't have on already, definately a boost gauge(60bux), MBC(50bux), then if i were you, id get a ss braided clutch line to help prolong the little life of your clutch. so that's like 200 bux. then i'd go with a turbo back exhaust if you have enought money left. if not, then a cat back and maybe a new inlet pipe with filter.

I am planning on doing minor mods in the near future also. Anyone know the ballpark whp/torque with a BB Triflo TB, drop in filter and Dyno Flash?

exhaust... no questions...

800 is not going to get you anything much in the suspension department...
