Default Stuck!

Maybe some of you can help me with a 'lil something. I'm patiently waiting for the twin turbo to arive, but in the mean time I'd like to start modding. I've saved the money for the costly TT, but have some extra to spend. What is the best mods I can do to get the most hp increase...not ness. right now, but when I put the TT on. I'm looking to do it right. I am a novice to the Z, but you gotta start somewhere...right? Anyhow any advice would be great.

Thanks,
Johnathon

have you thought about increasing air flow in and out of the car? you might want to get an intake or get a more free flowing exhaust to help the turbo. suspension mods would help too.

Well if you get an intake now you will just have to get rid of it when you go turbo so that would be a waste. A good exhaust would help but I would wait till more come out and if you go turbo they may come out with a turbo exhaust that will give you more power. I would just work on looks right now wheels body kit stereo etc..... Then when a turbo comes out get the best things for the kit you buy!

you would end up having to change the intake anyway when the turbo arrives... actually it would be useless since he would prolly be usin an intercooler.... but exaust sounds good..

a large diameter exhaust, I thought greddys exhaust was a bit larger than others... might be wrong.

otherwise, suspension, rims, tread, brakes. theres much more to a car than straight line speed.

you could also think about some custom internal work such as pistons, sleeves, rods, ect. prep the engine to support MASSIVE hp, and higher RPMs. a nice port and polish would be nice...

I suppose it depends how much extra you have...
