Next Logical Mod
 
Ok wondering what the next mod should be. I started with a procharger ps-1 with about 9ls of boost. Wasn't really happy with the way it preformed with out a stall, so I got a PI tripple 3200 on the way, along with a level 5 tranny and a truetrac.

Now I have about 1600 left to spend and want you opinion on what I should do next. I'm thinking either longtubes from american racing or a new cam (no real sure which one yet). I know the headers would compliment the blower well but if the cam would give a higher gain I want to go that route. I will eventually do both just wondering what the next step should be?

Oh, btw I posted in FI section because that really the only engine mod I have right now and thought you guys would be able to shed some light based on your own experiences.

1600 to spend, do headers, cam, valve springs and pushrods. Should be around there if you do it yourself.

Bout to say $1600 should be able to cover all L/T's, cam, springs, and pushrods. If not I would at least do the L/T's and good high flowing exaust system.

The only headers available for the 4x4 NNBS that I have found are the Dyantechs, American Racing, and JBA's. All of which are around $1400 with cats. Unfortunately I have to run cats to pass visual inspection.

I can install the headers myself but wouldn't know where to start on a cam.

Guess what I should have asked is, "if you were going to do one or the other which one would it be?"
