    If I had $3k to spend on my car, it would be a total beast with at least 500whp. But we are talking about yours. Hmmmm.... http://www.cobbtuning.com/cart/?id=2...AppID=19333&v=

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.

    Spend the 3k on pound/scale/gun, redistribute in smaller packages at a profitable price, rense and repeat until larger sum is aquired.

    Actually just go with the exhaust, injectors, fmic and tune.

    fmic will create more lag on a stock turbo...i wouldnt get a front mount unless you get an upgraded turbo.
