I have run into about $4K
What would you all do? I have a 98 GT with nothing more than the basic bolt-ons. Still have the Non-PI Heads.
Would you go after the suspension or the PI-Swap or just a good old S/C.
Just tring to get a direction.
Thanks for any help

9psi intercooled 1.7L KB ~$5k. Then save for suspension parts (not all that expensive).

Like someone else said...depends on the goal and your mechanical ability. I would say if you are not looking for a crazy 12 second car and you are good with a wrench do the PI swap, its not that much money and it adds good power. If you want to drop more money into it then get a procharger w/intercooler....thats what I would do at least. You dont have to spend all $4k on the car ya know.
