That's about 6-7g's on parts alone.

I think the MAF's more restrictive than the intake manifold, and I certainly woudn't prioritize that upgrade. Whatever floats your boat though.

Fuel, boost, then add on whatever. That's my school of thought.

There are no problems with the camshafts and we have also made a new specific grind for autos V manuel vehicles to ensure smooth idle and good strong torque gains.

We have a fairly good range of camshafts in stock now

ZFor sure just go with turbo first and then add little things on whenever you get the chance. Imagine the turbo almost doubling your horsepower. Your car twice as fast. Thats just sweet. Then you can always add things whenever you get more money. This is the road im going to take. Can only go so far with NA and you will still be unhappy.

I agreed with tops... get the turbo setup... you'll be happy... then slowly build around that saving pistons for last as you will need to take motor apart for that. All other mods are bolt ons that give greater gains to turbo applications. Also you don't need the pistons yet as you'll be non-intercooled and only pushing 7psi max. The ECU can even be placed on hold as one of the last items. If your looking for the best for your money get the turbo... then build around there. It's easier to do it that way than to build up first then be unsatisfied and wishing you had gone turbo... the wait seems to increase because of your unhappiness with the decision... I know as i did it that way and it seemed like forever for me to get my turbo... looking back i'd have gone turbo'd first then done the rest!
