In Your Opinion...
What do you think is the single best modification to put on the Z to gain the most HP/torque for the buck. BESIDES putting a turbo on it, I was thinking about putting exhaust/intake on it, but was wondering if there is anything else out there that is a good choice for a first mod.

wouldn't it make sense to do wheels/tires before adding HP, since I'm not sure you can put all the hp it makes with the stockers...

cats!!
some choices are random tech., kinetix, crawford, etc.
if emissions are not a problem for you, then get test pipes.... tons of gains there. but maybe very raspy.

what about the JWT Pop charger? How much of a difference does Plenum make? Is it worth the difference?

With the low cost of the Pop Charger, why not do both?

While both result in more air in the engine, the JWT deals with the amount of air taken in, whereas the plenum deals with the amount of air given to the engine. The sit at opposite ends of the intake tube.
