You should be able to find them used for pretty cheap.

That is pretty cheap and that's probably going to be my next upgrade along with 3.73 gears. Thanks

Shipping the heads (around 90lbs) should cost below $100. Sounds like a great deal.

Nitrous will compliment the added compression from the PI swap

How much cash on hand??? Of course the best mod would be F/I. I got my Paxton 2000 S/C with all the required goodies, for about $5500, installed. I gained over 150hp from this mod alone. Or, you can always charge it on a major credit sard , and pay it off as you go. If you decide not to go S/C, the it's gears, 3.73's, exhaust and intake, with a Dynotune. these mods should cost you about $1500.00. No HP gains from the gears, but it feels like you've gained 50hp from them.

Nitrous
Probably the best hp/$ ratio as well.
Not a lot of people care for it though.

Sweet! If you get your car dynoed after the PI swap and LTs post up the numbers because I'm doing the same mods.
