That's true, low end power just cooks the tires on this car....maybe I should be looking for a cam that is more peaky. Something that would make crazy power from 4000-7000+rpm

How much power would this give me?? gains over what I have? So, pull the heads, flycut the pistons, and buy a new set of 0.040 cometic gaskets...sounds ok to me. Total $500-600 in parts, and just my time.

I really am considering the TEA 1.5's, Fast 90/90 and X1, but after doing the math it adds up close to the price of an ATI system. To me the supercharger is less hastle and will give more power and drivabilty. Probably better on fuel? What's your thought?

There is always extra costs though, unless you skip the timing chain/oil pump and don't get upgraded injectors and fuel pump???? Question, what level of horsepower with a H/C setup can you get away with no fuel upgrades? On a 2001 with 55,000 miles would it be retarded not to get the timeing chain/oil pump? With the TEA/X1/Fast would it be most necessary? Skip the them and the fast that's over 2000

Close enough
