New GSR - now what?

[GSRinator]

Just bought a new GSR. Putting in UR pulleys, but dont know what do do first now. I want speed. But unfortunately Im on a budget. ANY THOUGHTS?

speed and on a budget (hurts to hear that)
well...i guess you could go with the basic in and out system (intake, header, hi flow cat, catback exhaust) But everyone knows real power is inside the machine itself, and big power= money

you planning on turboing or staying all motor?

 

[ltrain]

yea i would recomend basic bolt ons especially on a budget and i would neva recomens pulleys just my opinion i heard there not good for the car

Startin out fresh

Well, I kind of wanna build up the motor for now. It has 111k so I'm thinking its gonna need some tunin up. I will eventually Turbo it but for now wanting to stay motor.

 

[DC2_Project]

well its kinda dumb to build all motor then change to force induction. if you want to go turbo in the long run i would just buy stuff for turbo now and wait until you have everything you need instead of spending money on all motor stuff that your gonna have to take out when you go turbo

That is very true.....For all the basic bolt ons you can spend around...
300 to 550 bucks ---- catback exhaust
100 to 150 bucks----Catalytic converter
40 to 280 bucks---Cold air intake
100 to 300+ bucks----headers
100 to 350 bucks---- bigger throttle body
All that money could honestly piece together a turbo project for you. Just save you money get to know your car better and then boost the crap out of it. I personally wish I would have done taht from the beginning. I unfortunately went this way and wish I would have just save dmy money for a custom turbo kit. Either way you go bro ....Good luck and save your $$$$.

very true....i'm still torn as to what i should do. Boost or n/a right now i'm just savin

 

[01cleatus]

Thats what I would do if I could do it all over.....save some money and figure out what I would really like to do.

100 to 350 bucks---- bigger throttle body

I dont know if id reccomend the bigger throttle body, I'd get some nice plugs and wires. Maybe an MSD cap with an external coil.
