My original idea was to put headers on it but TTI's and full exhaust run close to 2k in Canada so I'm hoping for a better option.
Opinions?


Based on your opening question and some of your responses I think we need to know your budget, and your expectation. Certainly you can put headers on the car for far less than $2000. I also think that that a different cam will put more power in it too.

Your car/motor seems to run about right for what it is, and making any one change will not likely yield a huge gain.

Are you running your current combo on pump gas? If so, this surprises me. What is you cranking cylinder pressure?

If you go to a cam swap, I would go with a small solid
