    I would slow it down a little here.

    You might want to invest in a scan gauge or way to tune the car aswell before you just start tossing parts on the car.

    Many people have had issue with pacesetter headers, but any header you buy seems too. Speed Daddy headers are alot cheaper and work just as good.

    I don't know your knowledge of cars or these motors in general but intercoolers can be quite the pain in the ass to deal with.

    i know a decent amount about these cars so far from researching a lot, but yes i do already have an aeroforce scan gauge to constantly read the KR, thats the first thing that i bought after buying the car, ive pretty much got around $1500 right now to spend, and when i sell my other car in a week or two ill have another $2500 or so

    Welcome bro. Before buying a ZZP intercooler, unless it's used, it's worthwhile checking out the one made/sold by one of our members, sseilmnop. He's got a thread on here, and was cheaper last I checked.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    i have seen his on here he makes that phenolic ic core if im correct? i was a little lenient just because i had not really heard any reviews on it, but ya that would be nice to save some money for diff mods instead of spending it all on an intercooler lol

    I've seen sseilmnop's core in person and seen it seal up and run nice. As near as I can tell, it will operate as well as one of the bigger vendors... at the very least, it's your "bang for the buck" deal. Even if it ran a couple degrees warmer than ZZP, saving a few hundred leaves you room for some more mods that will increase horsepower more. Last I checked, more than 20 (30?) folks bought them between the forums. Yet to hear a bad review. Up to you, though... the size of an IC does matter, as folks have shown with ZZP's short stack intercooler - it's almost worthless. The sseilmnop is slightly shorter than ZZP, if memory serves. It doesn't seem like enough to upset anyone, though.
