Re: cheap upgrades

I got a good mod for the cost off a few washers if u wanna increase boost pressure without gettin a mbc. its called shimmin the wastegate, just unbolt the actuator(2 bolts) then slap 1-3 washers behind the actuator mounting brackets and bolt it back in and u should move from about 11-14/15 pounds. If ur lookin to get really intense u can buy longer actuator bolts and put more washers behind it. also. it might be easier to do this if u take the rod off connected to the manifold.

incase you guys just got excited and have turbo on the brain, he stated that he is N/A. options become very limited when it comes to upgrades.

ebay for CAI (depends on budget, search for a deal)
ebay for header (go with a brand name like DC Sports)
shop for exhaust (go with 2.25" custom and pick a decent muffler)
ebay for UD pully (not sure what to recommend, your on your own here)

just search around. I got my AEM CAI for $101 shipped brand new.

Re: cheap upgrades

Pulley makes a big difference. Make sure you go with a header when you get an exhaust. Helps alot too.
