Ok
WB $200
Boost gauge i feel is pointless if you have an aeroforce. $100
Aeroforce $240
HP tuners $500-600
rollers $160
Cam $300
So thats 1500 not counting another $250 in gaskets alone for install after you pull the heads and intake to port them. if your going to drop 2k now and want to spend more later, just get a turbo kit.
we tell this to everyone. first set a budget and a realistic goal for your car. on your quest for what you thought you wanted, a 2.6 you would prob have destroyed your trany well before then and had even more unexpected costs. so planning is a must if you are going this big.
my Z is my daily driver so im trying to build something fast but reliable. when i get inside the 13's i'll start planning for the trany. im sticking with a 3.8" on my topswap and have my heads ported, 1.8's RR, 105# sprigns, SD headers, full 2.5" exhaust, north star, ported m90, and i have years of tuning experience. its no fun to any of us to see someone throw the wrong parts at a car and it have KR or grenade.
My two suggestions are: (first find someone who can tune in your area or get a tuner and learn on your stock car how to tune. cause things only get harder and more risky as you and mods.)
1) save up and go turbo
2) if your goal and budgets are met with the M90 then start getting the flow mods. Headers, intake if you dont have one yet, port your parts heads, LIM, blower, Pulley drop (3.6 and a good tune) then cam springs and another pulley drop and tune... prob need different injectors soon here too, then IC and another pulley drop and tune, by this point you should have enough experience to know what your next steps will be and know what direction to take it all.
