Some of the big power guys run them but you don't hear of many people with them under 500rwkws. I think $$$/gain puts them way down the list of things to do.

Sure some of the guys running them will speak up.

hey mate, if you have a look around the mod threads in the 300,400, 500, 600 sections most guys don't consider cams unless they are going massive power (think 600rwkw+) at the level you are talking about your money would be better spent on the surge tank, turob mods or bigger turbo.

Wat everyone alse is saying with that budget I would be gouing with the f6 turbo and get some big power with a cooler set, injectors, surge tank, exhaust, cai and u will see some nice numbers with a tune!!!

Nice colour by the way!!!!!!!!!

The small turbo is good for 330 rwkw. you just need a compressor wheel and front housing not a full turbo. depends what power youre looking for. 350rwkw is considered "safe" but theres a few people running 400rwkw with stock internals with no trouble so far. but you said you plan on owning the car for a while in which id stay on the safe side. the auto should be fine for upto high 300s (I think?) but you can get it built stronger and tuned. id leave the diff gears untill you get it tuned, as I have trouble keeping traction in mine and that's almost stock, even with the stickyest rubber out there I think you will find it struggeling for grip in 2nd. theres a reason people dont bother with diff gears, its because these beasts dont need them once tuned.

+1 on the sexy colour btw ;)

cheers, Andy

It all comes down to how much power you want..

If your keeping the stock turbo (~330rwkw), then the 1000hp cooler, cams, diff gears are over kill, well the diff gears aren't worth it in these cars.. But the f6 injectors would be fine.

If your going a bigger turbo(~330rwkw+) than depending on how much power your aiming for.. Then bigger injectors and maybe the 1000hp cooler and intake would be ok, exhaust is fine, Vsprings for sure, coils should be fine, surge tank I would get.. Turbo manifold and turbo bag not needed..

Sticky rubber definitely needed.. Brake upgrade and suspension should be looked at for sure..

suspension plus brakes to stop the beast.

100% Agree.

Huge straight line power is one thing, making it handle and brake equally well is often overlooked/skimped on - so put some good $$ towards that, and take off the things the guys have already identified.

IMO!
