i've gotten a CAI and high-flow exhuast system, which are probly the best first two mods for a GA. I'm learnin more and more everyday, but I want some "veteran" advice on what next step would be the best performance-wise, w/ out spending a rediculous amount for a turbo kit or supercharger. Much appreciated guys.

I'm certainly no veteran, but I would think next step to be porting your intake manifold. I guess it's just an idea to put out there.

CAI and exhaust.. if your going N/A then save for mani's, or a DHP, or TB, or headers...

my understanding is that there's virtually no need for a new TB unless i get it turbo'd or s/charged..would a DHP chip or new headers be a better investment? I'm leaning more towards DHP, but about how much of a hp increase should i expect with something like that? preesh

If I were you I'd look at headers next. After that I would go with the chip.

DHP says 6-10 hp with a catback and intake...
or you can get TOG headers which are dyno proven for 19 hp...
id say get he headers then the DHP, i think thats the route ima take...
along with a 3.29 ratio from a GT and some new tires...

wow, TOG headers do seem like the best bet,, but they're ~$800. I'm probly gonna end up saving up for both the headers and the chip,, but i might get the chip first only since i'll be able to afford it first. are there any other headers that'll give at least a 10 hp that're slightly more reasonably priced?

well S&S is cheaper, but TOG's also come with a lifetime warranty, they're supposed to look better under the hood too...
