My point e x a c t l y
App6MT just spent $2365 on NA mods.
There is a Procharger in the FI Private classifieds for $2700.

BTW- App6MT, I am not hating on you, just making a point.
To each their own.

I understand. I also plan on going FI. But I've been looking at the STS rear mount kit.
So other than the CAI and XO2 exhaust, I can use everything else I bought to help with gains.
And you can't find a FI kit for the Rev-Up motors that is 2700

if you ONLY plan on spending 1k, then get a used spacer and a decent exhaust (nismo if you want it to sound good). Drop in a k&n if you want. If you have a revup motor, you will want to get the mrev2 along with the spacer. Get a cheap piggy back or reflash later, and you'll feel a difference.
if you are going to spend much more than this, just get a prochorager/vortech kit used, and don't worry about exhaust or any thing else. bam, 330whp.
Don't waste your money on NA crap for this car if you want power. The only reason I have exhaust/spacer is that I'll be able to use with my supercharger and I needed something to tide me over for a while.
cai ftl, i hate mine. I'm taking it off, it doesn't do anything and sounds ricey.
