i need a route to take on performance

[mistumangst97]

Well anyways i have a 1997 gs-T right now i have a turbo xs type rfl bov, injen intake, and magnacore spark plug wires. I have $8000 to play with my performance of my car, but im not sure what route to take. I want a dependable daily driver and i want to dip into the 12's for sure. I was just wondering what to do so if anyone has some suggestions i would much appreciate it.

p.s. i know they have the staged performance routes to take but i have a little more money to use as you can see that is why i am posting this.

You need to first pick one or the other with your car. 12's on a dependable daily driven GST is pretty hard. You will break stuff.

Why don't you give us a list of what you think you are going to go with to get you to your goals and we can remove and replace as fit.

Just a suggestion.

Get some tuning tools and learn how to tune so when you upgrade your turbo, injectors, fuel pump, anything to do with air/fuel, you will know how to safely run it all. Basically follow all the other upgrade paths already out there, but move a little quicker. Start up with a small turbo and max it out so you can get used to everything. Don't just throw all the money towards huge stuff because your gonna blow something up and then your gonna have to spend your money on that... which sucks. Build your trans to handle 12's. Go to www.roadraceengineering.com and follow their path.

Most accurate statement I've heard all day.
