your not gonna get very far without a turbo. there is a guy on 2gnt.com that got his NA to around 200hp without a turbo but it was just as expensive if not more. if you want power go for turbo. Thats what i did and im never lookin back

all those brand name parts are a WASTE of money for how much performance gain you get. ok so HKS headers are $300 obo apexi exhaust is $500 obo and a injen intake is $240 obo
so thats $1040 WASTED i did my turbo build for $1100 there is a guy on turboshack that did his for $800
dont waste your money

QUOTE (Project92GS @ Jul 7 2009, 09:38 AM) It dont matter what you do to the car, Without going turbo its gonnas be weak and slow. Also internals are like crank shaft, pistons, rods ect.. And theres no point whatso ever in upgrading them unless you're turboing it. Ive heard alot about turboing the 420A is bad for them and causes problems... true false?
