So thats 24 hp gain, and thats assuming they all add to the same part of the powerband, which they don't. I don't know why people are so obsessed with having the highest horsepower numbers, the shape of the curve is far more important.

if you are really looking for some serious power... then go with a turbo... even tho you already ruled it out.
but with all those mods, your looking at 30ish whp gain to be realistic.

when it comes to anyting car-related, to each their own. a person can easily drop 2000 into making a car look nice, but still slow. a person can also drop that 2000 into NA mods, and still have, what many consider to be, a relatively "slow" car in comparision to what is considered fast today. especially for me, since i have an auto, in the end, going NA will not be worth it...neither do i think turbo will be worth it as well in the end...
as a previous poster said, maybe it's better to drop the 2000 as a down payment on a car already fast. anyways, in the end to each their own, but for me, bah, why i should i spend 2000 to shave a second and a half, maybe two in NA mods.
