What is the best bang for your bucks modification today, on any car? Hrmmm.. I'll have to start a new thread elsewhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geea Site protagonist Lifetime Members 4,320 Member For: 21y 10m 25d Gender: Male Location: At the lights, waiting for you. Posted 02/04/06 06:55 AM Share Posted 02/04/06 06:55 AM For your $2k of mods I'd suggest a 2ndCAI with better filter, centre muffer removal, better cat, and a HPF custom edit tune. You'll need to look at the trans aswell. If it's auto you'll need a trans cooler and if manual a better clutch.This will give you a tune that will be at the limit of the injectors and a good starting point for any future mods. When doing any mods it's important to plan ahead and not do mods that you'll have to redo latter.After you've had your T modded you will have the bug and more than likely do further mods in the future. The next step would be injectors and fuel pump. After this look at valve springs and an intercooler.Being in Melbourne you have two of the country's best tuners at your disposal, HPF and Nizpro. I'd give both a ring and see what they suggest. If you'd like to see what a HPF car goes like get in touch with me and I'll take you for a spin.Geea.

Adam Here since the start... Lifetime Members 10,282 Member For: 21y 11m 11d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 11/04/06 03:17 AM Share Posted 11/04/06 03:17 AM The BF already has a separate trans cooler so that won't be an issue.I'd go with Geea's suggestions also...But I don't think you'll get all that for $2k.Just a custom tune will provide excellent results, it's not uncommon these days to see figures of 260-270rwkw's from this alone.
