next step in modding?
Now my mods are twin K&N intake system with carbon fiber coupler, Lgpromotorsport longtube headers without cats, corsa indy catback, aussie clutch. My question is what should be my next step in modding I do plan on doing heads and cam in the future but I kind of want to max out on bolt ons before I start cracking into the engine. I was thinking about the fast 90/90 system but I hear they don’t give that much horsepower until a cam, I was wondering how much power it would give me on my setup and if its worth it. And if anyone else has any ideas of other good mods instead or in addition.

the 90's are not needed and the potential will not be realized until you go internal to the engine. If you plan to do heads and cam, why not go ahead and do the intake and throttle body. But again you won't realize many of the gains till after you do the heads and cam. You've got intake and exhaust i would reccomend a underdrive pulley, however it's as much work to do the pulley as it is to do a cam swap, so you might as well just do all that at the same time.
Might as well do some nitrous.
