    Headers have shown to not actually change anything significant. I fought kr for years with headers and other bolt on's with no timing.

    I've learned from multiple cars that exhaust does almost nothing for these cars. If you really want to make power, you need to fix the problem. The blower creates lots of heat. Until you fix that, you'll always be chasing your tail.
    Definitely looking into getting an intercooler. Maybe just the Stage 1 from ZZP... Stage 2 is pricey. Heard about the blower and heat up etc. I'm sure all this top end work will ruin my 180K Trans. I need to get on that soon.

    Definitely save up for the full stack. The ssic helps, but it's not anywhere close to the full.
