I spent a good $5k on NA mods, got butt hurt, and went a bit overboard on my counterattack. I decided to try and reuse as much as my NA mods already installed, hence my choice of supercharger(s) kit. I could have made money back on parts, but who likes selling parts? Could have been different if My O2 sensors were extended correctly.

I'm 50/50 on Spohn's assessment. Gain 50whp for about $5-6k on just hp and cooling mods. But as noted here earlier, supporting mods for FI, and for many, install, still looking at $10k. Math still says FI is the bang for buck choice, but I've never seen an FI budget stay within budget. Mine was blown by 50%... GTM and their MHI kits... they may get people to add $3-5k in upgrades for all those kits they sold. Reminds me of a dealer selling a car for cheap to get you in their service dept and rape u there lol.
