They make new pistons every day, so why worry?

Honestly in my opinion leave the rest alone. The stock injectors and mass air will be fine for your stock engine. The throttle body could be upgraded but the gains would be menial at best. If you are going to put a supercharger on the car, look to install the complete supercharger kit all at once.

newb, wait until you do the blower the do it once. The performance increase from only an intake is not worth the hassle and money. You'll be ripping it off next year anyway.

I agree with everyone else, I would wait.

Roots are the ish though.

Yeah. They make one that bolts on the stock 5.0 lower and gt40, and they make one for the gt40 lower only.
