Best bang for the buck with $250?
#21
The front mount was easy as pie to install, but I never got around to installing the rear. You just need to remove the intake to be able to reach the rear mount. I thought the hardest part was trying to figure out where all the plastic underbody pieces went and which clips went where when trying to reinstall those underbody panels.
I would really be stunned to see you get 220-240 whp going NA for around $1500. Just the parts alone for getting to that level would be at least $4000, nevermind the labor and hours on the dyno doing tuning. Even then I would be stunned to see you make an additional 80-100 whp NA. The car would be miserable to drive too, all lumpy at idle and low rpm from the absurd cams, and all your power coming in the high rpm range. I think this fellow is pulling your leg.
I don't understand what people have against F/I. Without question, it is the least expensive, most reliable way of making power. $4500 gets you a great turbo kit installed, making your choice between 225-275 whp.

yeah, all the research i've done points against his theory working as well. That's kinda why i'm hesitent on getting an intake or headers...i'm probably going to end up boosting anyway! just don't know when. i might ended up trading in when the new EvoX comes out. either for that or a used Evo VIII.
oh, but labor on all that was going to be heavily discounted...old business partner.
