Default More performance mods

I currently own the CC complete SS exhaust with the highflow cat and the magnaflow muffler, i also have the Injen CAI, and the CC shortshifter. I ordered the CC S-pipe and the Alphawerks Header.

now my question is what other performance mods can i put on the car besides ZPI headwork and pulleys ? Oh and i want to stay N/A.

Thank you.

lightened flywheel and upgraded clutch. see when quaife is releasing their lsd. swaybars, coilovers, brakes. piggyback or standalone. after that its pretty much headwork then rebuild. vavle job, new lifters, retainers, springs, hopefully some n/a cams will come out for those not going FI. cam gears. custom intake manifold, bigger throttle body. then just rebuild the engine to higher compression if you need more power.

anyone think a mr2 3sgte could be done? rear engine rwd. if it could be done. custom wiring, custom axels and mounts. some way to fit the shift linkage. probably end up having to run a standalone, or change out the ignition.

enough welding and cutting and you could fit a 572 c.i. chevy in the car.

You all are thinking too small.

I heard about this V18 that powered an F4F Hell Cat... during WWII...



Anyways, to say something helpful, I would go with the head work first since that's already an offered service by ZPI and you seem done with bolt ons. Don't forget, maybe an Emanage or Camcom to tune some more HP and maybe even MPG out of your system.

big power adders for natural aspiration as of now:

stage 1 head (will be proven when i finish my install ... arp studs got here today :D )

aftremarket header (shows 10-15ft-lb)

piggyback added to these 2 mods (keep the car running in tip top shape and lean it out to regain some mpg)
