Dont waist your money on the pretty kineix manifold.I would do as said above and get some test pipes for a start and then maybe nitrous.

Test pipes, a reflash, and maybe some nitrous are your best bets.

Oh yeah? Combined with an turbonator, they add exactly 1423.22whp. If you really want serious horse powa, add an interfooler to the mix~

what?? Anyone that knows anything about the VQ understands the interfooler and turbonator arent compatible due to the overflux of harmonical mass...god!

Test pipes and a tune will go a long way with the mods you have already done. After that its cams, headers, and finally FI. We are local so let us know what we can do for your Z.

Not to be negative but I just did a supercharger and I'm already bored. Just save up for a turbo setup, it's the only thing that will cure the craving for more power in our cars.
