I completely feel you on your reasons. I just sold my whole car and started from scratch. I saw you looking for long tubes. Of.course I'm partial to PPE's, there are at least a couple good options now days. Z1 has their modified VHR manifold too. I'm not sure how far you want to go with NA mods, but after doing the standard breather mods, you can look at reducing rotational mass. I bet buying two piece rear rotors will show measurable improvement.

Well this makes me feel better about my decision to stay NA. I've got PPE LTH and FI 12" CF on the way. But reading several post, it appears I'll need a tune with these mods. I'll probably schedule Z1 to do the tune...might look into getting their intake manifold installed as well.

No I don't have audio/video because the headers and exhaust are still being made. The headers are black ceramic coated with parallel collectors...hopefully they're about another 3-4 weeks out. I'm not sure when I'll receive my FI exhaust; maybe late June early July. Anyway, I'm going to wait until I get the exhaust before I install the headers. From what I've heard so far,the headers are going to be a b***h to install. But I figure I can use the money I save doing the install myself towards a tune and maybe a Z1 intake manifold.

As far as audio/video goes, I'm not YouTube savvy. Maybe I'll hook up with one of the local forum member who is. If I do, I'll post it up.

Good choice any idea as to when their intake manifold is coming out
