Default What am I missing?

Here is the list of parts I have planned for my NA tC. I am considering the Supercharger a bit later but I would rather build my motor up first. Can anyone give me any parts I am missing to help increase the NA hp?

Here is My list...

CAI
HEADERS
S-PIPE
CATBACK EXHAUST
HI FLOW CAT
PULLEY SET
ECU


Any tips on what I am missing to throw into my vehicular would be fanfrickentastic!! Thanks again guys

you're really not building up your motor... you're just putting on a i/h/e/p system.

you know if you get an "ecu" aka Engine Managment on an N/A tC you won't be getting much power from that. I'm guessing you didn't know that because you didn't search.

Are you going S/C or N/A?
