advice on upgrades.

[ATLDSM96]

OK i have a mhi E316G, ssac frontmount, 1g bov, and wanted to know what would be the most logical next upgrade, i know i need injectors fuel pump exhaust, safc, and lots of other stuff, but what would be the best thing as far as performance for me? my goal is to break 300 and i know its very possible? all suggestions are welcome

I would say get your tuning stuff next. safc, wideband, datalogger.

. . . I'm sure he means cylinders.

You said it. If you'll be happy with under 350whp then the 190 will be fine. If not, then a 255 walbro fuel pump and an adjustable FPR should be added to the list. All those parts are neccesary. Any one part there is pretty much worthless without the other.

First though, get a logger. See what's happening now and when you upgrade. It's really hard to tune a daily driver with an injector upgrade based on spark plug color.

If you don't have the money for all of that at once (which is really neccesary to buy all at once), then just get your act clutch upgrade out of the way. Your stock clutch can barely hang on at 250whp.

Dsm-onster is correct in that if you're not gonna do all of your first stage mods at once then just do your clutch upgrade. Especially if it's not in too good shape now. Once you have that and a logger out of the way a full exhaust would probably be your best bet. If you are trying to things in steps the full exhaust makes sense to do next because it is the most expensive first stage mod you will do with the exception of a turbo. A new catback, downpipe and 02 sensor housing will be what you will need. If you only intend to make 300 hp then there is no need to spend the extra money for a full 3" exhaust. A 2.5" 02 sensor housing, downpipe and catback would work great for a 300 hp build.
