Default What Next?

Trying to think of what to do next with my car in sig. I am guessing that
this motor could probably get some more power from a bigger cam and maybe some 42lb injectors. Also, car is still on the stock TB. I assume that i should get a 58mm before anything else right? Heads flow slightly better than LE3s (290/208 @ 600) Or should i look into more suspension stuff? Opinions? Thanks guys

A 58mm would be worth a few ponies. 42# injectors themselves won't do you any good by themselves, as they are a supportive modification.

If you're looking for a more aggressive cam, I'm selling my XE 236/242 (one step above yours in the XE-series of grinds). Other than that, a custom grind would be nice.

Maybe look into some more suspension as well.

yea i meant 42# injectors IF i did a bigger cam since im pretty sure 30# injectors would be running out of fuel by that time. What is the lift on that cam your selling?
