Help me make my summer list!
Well, I'm looking at some upgrades and want opinions. Give me suggestions on what im looking for, and please list how much the $$ are of them.
So far I'm looking at a new cam, but I want something that will give me a good jump in power, yet if driven normally, not affect gas mileage (I will be getting a dyno tune as well after all of this).
Headers, maybe kooks or something, give me suggestions on longtube headers.
Give me suggestions on pipes I need, I have a dmh cutout So if i need to get rid of my I pipe I need to know that so I can put it on the new pipes. Let me hear what you guys have to say.

Cam = 224 112 or 114 $500-600 roughly for springs/cam/pushrods
headers = American Racing, Hookers, Qtps, Pacesetters depending on how you want to spend $1400-$500 for headers/ypipe
and a Torque arm, lower control arms, relocation brackets, panhard bar to stick the power to the ground....sayyyy $500 for all of that suspension.
oh and dont forget a tune $300-500.

The header's listed by 1Loudz28 are all great. If you got the money to spend, get tha Kook's but the Pacesetter's are probably your best bet if your working with a low budget.
Do the suspension part's suggested as well, i know ill be doing that after some small mod's and some appearance mods.

Do you really think you will be getting good mpg after your cam install?Your right foot will be in it all the time,with a smile on your face of course.I would go with something a little bigger than a 224 grind.

u can daily drive the ms3, however ive seen cars that surge alot at idle with it, and you lose a lot of low rpm power with it. however it does make great numbers and youll definitely happy with it if you want big power in your daily driver.
and if you get pacesetters, get coated. my painted ones (yes, i was on a budget argh) got to me rusting slightly.

http://texas-speed.com/shop/item.asp...d=164&catid=44 This cam seems perfect for stock components, 1200-6200 is great! It says the gains are around 30hp though. That with some headers and pipes, do you think id be close to 400?
