Dude, some searches of this site might help you with some of the things that you are asking. Most have been talked about.

Rods are said to be the weakest link in the engine right now, so a forged set of them would be a nice place to start. Beyond that, it just comes to how much money you want to spend.

BTW, I know you are excited, but keep your goal in mind too. IF you are truely going TT on a budget, I would wait on any engine mods til maybe when you get the TT or after, JMO.

For 8000, you can put your car in a class better or equal too the performance of a porsche 911 or a Z06vette...

34,000 + 8,000 = SLEEPER... or (What was that as I pazzzzz)
All I want is to do 180 to 200!

I had a friend that had a volvo wagen with a 5.0 mustang engine stuffed in it......thats a sleeper.

You really think the performance will equal a 911 or Z06vette......I was hoping for better.....those cars suck...lol j/k I like em both.

give it 2 more years, Nissan is making a big statement with its product line... and aftermarket stuff is crazy...

If I can run down stock vettes now, Turbos will get me there against a Z06...

The only issue I dont want is when sales decline for Nissan, and out come the TT's from them/nismo... I'll be pissssed, because they promissed only NA.

By the way todays her Birthday...! I promised myself to go turbo by year 4...
