Default Need More Mods! Help!

hi guys, im new here, I have a 09 and I already got the following mods

Sekki Headers
Joe z Exhaust
Blitz Throttle Controller
Injen Intake

But im looking for more mods! I was looking on the iss scoops but cant find pricing for it or where I can get those, also is there any other mods without going FI or N20?

I was looking also on the elite manifold but cannot find their website or if they are available!

Help me out i want to spend some more $ on mods..

Any Suggestions!?

thanks!

Wow must be Christmas time at your house lol - maybe you can start working on suspension so your car will handle better in the twisties with all that extra power!

Get rid of your cats and go 100 shot NOS! I have not heard one bad incident with NOS from users here yet.

Bigger throttle body, shave and port intake plenum manifold.....tons of stuff, but probably wont see much gains as there are no ECU's or programming available to maximize on those changes. You are off to a great start and have nearly finished all the engine upgrades in one step it sounds like
IN all seriousness, install the parts you have purchased first, then you will know a better direction of what you want to do next........

Yea, it sounds like you put yourself straight into the situation the rest of us are in. I will be Extrude Honing my intake and porting my T.B. this winter only for the simple fact that it's all I can do right now to maybe squeeze a few more H.P. without using NOS or FI.
Blitz is right, you should drop some weight. Get some Figs rotors, Mega arms and light wheels. What suspension do you have? Coilovers are going to shave the most weight.

Out of curiosity, what are you planning to use the car for? A track beast? A daily driver? Drag strip? It's hard to understand why you "need" more without having driven the car with what you've purchased thus far.

Have you done business with them, Joshhleee?

Any mention of VIPAutoSalon should be banned....
