Default Re: Best upgrades for power xr8

Mod list is:


- 2.5" Manta quad
- 200 cell cats
- Genie Tri-Y headers
- KPM/Streetfighter CAI
- 25% under drives
- Plenum phenolic spacer
- And a tune to tie it all together


If I do anything else it would probably be a plenum and throttle body upgrade but it's not great returns for the money. I've kept the factory 5900prm rev limit but I could have taken it up to 6500rpm I guess (it's still making power at 5.9k) but I don't really see the point just for a peak number. Fairly tough to crack 300rwkw NA with bolt-ons with these things I reckon.
