options after 1.9 rockers?

[GOTIT4CHEAP16]

Just installed my 1.9 rockers and l76 springs recently and im wondering what i can do next for even more power?

[blueguy]

Intercooler, nitrous, turbo?

Budget and what you want out of the car would be nice to know as well. If it were me...I'd sell the rockers and cam it.

If you don't want to get rid of the rockers you just put in with the L76 springs...then get a stage 2 IC kit...and toss a 3.2" on there.

[GOTIT4CHEAP16]

cool thanks gtp. i might go intercooled.

Intercooler is the best mod IMO. Are you going to Carlisle Gm nationals?

great starting point. hptuners there...idk how one goes about using dhp. from there, the hptuners forum is a great tool, and they set u up with the forum when you get your serial number and everything when you buy the interface. any other questions, just ask...

where can i have my shift points at now with me installing l76 springs, ls retainers, and zzp comp locks along with the rocker install? Im currently still at the stick shift points. And will i notice a difference after the change?

[batman1988]

Step one: TRANNY
Step two: Headers
Ported blower and TB
Tune

And maybe just maybe a devil's own injection kit, but i dont know much about them. You would have to talk with nick or brian about that.

you dont need to raise the shift points. without a cam you're not making power past 5600 or so. the only reason to have them raise is so when it shifts you're right in the meat of your powerband.

helps to have the tuner for the tranny... because I assume if your getting a tranny your getting a better gear setup...

plus why spend 2k on a tranny when your just starting out? the stocker can take it for a while...
