    hey guys just looking for some opinions here. I recently got my headers in and im happy with them so far. Now my total mod list, is headers, a zzp can tune, autolite 105s, homemade air intake. I was kind of leaning towards a pulley finally, but eventually id like to go cammed or rockers, and throw an intercooler on it. But what do you think? should i do the rockers first, or go ahead and pulley down to make the best bang for the buck at this point

    whats gonna be more beneficial in the long run? Cam or rockers? its about the same pricewise by the time its all said and done but it seems liek a cam would be more beneficial?

    Do not get a loan to mod your car. If you can't afford to mod your car then you can't afford to fix it when it breaks.

    this is probably gonna sound really dumb but, the cam in itself wont kill any kr or will it? ive read up on the ic and i see that can drop it significantly, but i dont know much about camming and stuff

    You could pulley down now.... Seriously

    Cam is going to be the way to go if you want power throughout your wideband and your willing to spend the 1K(unless you go with VS)it will cost you for all the parts to go along with it. Rockers won't cost you anywhere near that. It's worth to go cam in the long run if you plan to further mod the car. I would suggest a XP cam if theres any chance you might go turbo in the future.

    If you can't run a 3.4 on headers, intake, and a "tune". You are doing it wrong or your car is a piece of ****.
