| Thanks to everyone who helped guide me through this process. She fired up the first time, purrs so much smoother and pulls harder to redline. In the first stage of the buildup here is what I got done in about a week. My hands are sore ;) 1. Nismo 740 injectors
2. Replaced all valve cover gaskets, moon shape rubber, and resealed VTC solenoids
3. New FPR, Dampner, filter, and fuel hoses.
4. New NGK spark plugs
5. New PCV valves and 5 PCV hoses
6. Throttle body hose by-pass.
7. JWT Dual POP with low speed kit
8. New JWT 740/Dual POP program
9. Misc cleaning and di-electric grease on all connectors. Moving on to suspension tuning. I am aiming for 400rwhp and want the car to handle as well as or better than it can accelerate for 80% street/20% track. This is not a daily driver. I took a look at what SPL has to offer and while it all looks great and tempting, whats the best combination for my particular application? I don't mind stiffness or somewhat louder cabin noise, however it should stay connected with the road and inspire confidence even with California roads. Is this do-able or am I dreaming? I was impressed with a '06 carrera S that I had the opportunity to drive HARD from San Jose to Sacramento. Supple on the highway and tight as you push it harder and harder. How much $$ in parts will it take? My guess is ~ $2500.
thanks!
