increasing hp
I want to slowly start building up my motor so I was curious if anybody has any input?
I was thinking starting with the basics, air flow, flywheel, cams, ecu. Then go from there. any ideas?

After reading through a good deal of the information on the boards here, the only way to make a good increase in power is to go FI. The OEM engine is tuned pretty well from the factory and bolt ons won't show dramatic changes in hp and tq. Of course, that shouldn't stop you as the bolt ons do change other aspects of the vehicle including aesthetics, sound and handling.
The best mods seem to be: test pipe, high end header, 70mm catback exhaust (single is better, although dual might be more pleasing to the eye) and intake (K&N FIPK seems to be the favorite all around, but any CAI will produce some decent gains)
N/A mods require alot more money for alot less power. Go with the basics, keeping in mind what FI will require down the road, and save up for FI.
Good luck!
