So if you recognize my name you know i just got my hands on this bad boy. Its aero blue BONE STOCK and 60,000 miles. Got it at a steal so i jumped on it over a limited with 56,000. Point being ive been researching how to get the best out of this beast short of a V8 swap or NoS. Nothing against it, but to me thats not what your engine can do its what you can forde into to make it use short term. YES, ive been searching the forums and other websites but it gets a bit hard looking for specifics. Any contributions would help because it would be amazing to have all of this in one spot.

So far i have just the basics on the list. not in any order its a tune up from eurocharge (im a actually going to their dinner on the 24 or 26 or whenever in houston, its in my calendar and since its cheap and free to redo im doing it now) swap your pulleys. Any specifica? Some just say shorter pulleys some say aluminum pulleys what would yall suggest? A CAI/DCAI. Id like to run a DCAI because long term i wont regret it. Someone mentioned needwings wont fit you have to "modify" it? Could anyone elborate or suggest a brand that WILL fit. An intercooler swap was also mentioned, coildnt find any brands or reasons besides its good to have. I know theres more im just drawing out a blank so any and all tips would be greatly appreciated. I plan on taking her out to the track soon so i want to be able to upgrade her and show people that they shouldnt under estimate a v8

PS. Im not against eventually running a Wet NoS system id just rather do that very last
