Okay so I have about 4500 dollars to work with for my next modification to my 2000 GT. To date so far I have BBK shorty headers, x-pipe, flowmaster prochamber exhaust, 3:73 gears, BBK 75mm throttle body and intake elbow, intake spacer, C&L cold air intake, with 80mm MAF, MGW short throw shifter, full suspension: 5 was adjustable shocks and struts, sway bars, subframe connectors, upper and lower control arms, caster/camber plates and the car is tuned with a Diablo Predator tuner. Now here is what I'm trying to decide on. Either I'm going to go with all forged internals, cobra crank, pistons, rods, new patriot stage 2 heads, and crower stage 3 blower cams, or I'm going to go ahead and order a Procharger with the D1 head unit and just run about 10 lbs of boost until I get forged internals. What ever I upgrade it's going to be about another year before I will be able to talk the wife into letting me modify something else. What should I do? Also I'm not sure about running blower cams on a N/A motor, is this possible if I go that route? Thanks for your help!
Which upgrade?

If you plan on doing the work yourself....I'd go with forging the internals....then save up for a KB 2.2 next year and be happy....ever since I got my s/c....I've wanted to forge the internals to up the boost....but it's gonna be forever before I can afford that....overhaulin the engine is going to cost me more than the s/c cuz I can't do all the work myself...or I would have done that first

Get a blower, maybe add some cams, but definately upgrade to BIGGER BRAKES!!! Your gonna be making alot more power, and have a good suspension, you must upgrade the whoa to match your go!!

Went with Procharger
Okay guys, I just ordered my procharger stage 2 with the D1 head upgrade
, I plan on installing this myself and then having it dyno tuned and a shop near by. Has anyone ever installed one before? How hard is it and is there any unforseen problems I should expect? The place I bought it from said it should take between 8-10 hours, is that about right?
