So Whats Next on the Mod horizon??

So Whats Next on the Mod horizon??
So whats next up on the Z power mod lists... We got ECUs.. Turbos. superchargers. headers. exhausts. intakes and plenums. pulleys. test pipes. cams. pistons/rods....
not much left is there?
obviously there will be different variations of the products listed above-- but.. let's brainstorm here and think of other ways to make more power- there's got to be something we've overlooked.

Ported & polished heads, also maybe a closed deck kit would be nice. Knife edged crank for the helluvit . More R&P gears for diffs and how about possibly tranny options for regearing / beefing it up? A sequential based turbo would be neat as well. Em twin screw based SC. A real and _affordable_ stand-alone ECU would be a welcome if it had a bunch of requested features from this board regarding general fuel/timing control, as well as capability with TPS and the CAM system/network. How about aftermarket fuel rails, braided kits for fuel/vacuum/oil lines. Bored block core swaps? Sleeve's. Natural gas adaption kit for the serious PSI pushers?

Natural Gas Adaption?!
stroker kit to say.. 3.8L?
did't Jeff@Performance do a port / polish of the heads and that didnt do anything except look pretty...from the inside...
i was thinking on the lines of gearing options... hopefully BJ's race team can do something about that....
what are your thoughts about variable-exhaust systems? i.e. actuator controlled...

revein the block to add more coolant taps so you can run it at higher revs continually or with boost. How about a modified crank (say 4 bolt main) to allow for higher revs, say to 8k.

The main thing we need is a good ECU.
I'm sorry, but the TechnoSquare ECU flash doesn't cut it for me. I need a MAP sensor, and I need user programability. I can't drive out to California or send out my ECU every time it needs adjustments.
At this point, I'm 95% sure that I will eventually go with a TEC3 based solution, with the stock ECU remaining just to control the HVAC, etc.

howabout some cvtcvs sprockets like the jdm nismo ones, a lightweight alternator to reduce rotational mass, a larger maf, some dynos on the nismo heads to see how much they can put out, upgraded coil packs for our ignition system, cheaper independent throttle bodies

thermal spray ceramic coatings on piston crowns for lower heat transfer and det resistance:
http://www.iom3.org/divisions/automotive/news3.htm
xylan coatings on intake interior, TB, piston skirts, crank journals, supercharger internals for low friction, better airflow.
http://www.crestcoating.com/xylanpg.html
titanium valves from VQ45 for higher rpm
and a better ecu
