hey guys!
a few of my friends were talking me into puttin nitrous on my car.i almost considered it,but i've seen a few bad things as the result.my car has 102,000 miles,so i think i'll wait until i do forged internals before i spray the car.anyway i was thinking of going ahead and doing mac longtube headers and a shorty prochamber or x pipe,and some vt stage 2 cams with comp springs.what do you guys think?
all my mods i have right now are in my sig,so if you guys think i should do somthing else before i order these parts,then lemme know!!

Why did you not do the PI cams when you did PI head and intake? If you actually did do the PI cams I would say exhaust. If you did not do PI cams already then VT cams.

we did do the pi cams,it just seems that people are gaining so much more with the vt stage 2's.

a few peeps said that they didn't see much if any gains from this,but its easy to get too,so this would be the next mod after the headers.

do the cams/springs and headers etc, and the plenum t/b all at once. Then start saving for a forged shortblock and nitrous

Yup, they are easy to get, easy to install, so why not get them out of the way, to assist your higher flowing heads and potential cam setup?

I would do some LTs and the Upper intake work first. If you plan on doing a rebuild, your going to have your motor down anyways. Might as well wait to do cams then. No need to tear down the top half twice, right?
