Question Modlist suggestions

Hi there folks,

I am planning to mod my car. These are the mods I am planning to have:

- Air: CAI AEM
- Exhaust: Greddy SE or AP (+testpipe) or ES Titanium (+headers,testpipe)
- Pully: AP
- Clutch: Exedy Stage 1 or 2 (w/flywheel), Comeptition Clutch Level 2
- Buddy Club Consender
- Maybe some AFP and ECU modding

I am not planning for FI since plp dont know much bout the engine here and dont want to get a blown engine.

From NA based, do you guys think that list sounds good in means of torque and HP. Not gonna waste time on dynos, main goal for me is to have more torque and faster acceleration.

You guys have any suggestions for that list (no goes or must do's), esspially about the exhaust the Clutch.

tx

Biggest gain your gunna see from a n/a is the accessport tuned by MM. The rest won't give you much, mostly for sound and looks. Do some reasearch.

After reading your PM (Turkey\EU rx8) that's what i'd do to my car:
Upgraded coils,
Midpipe\sports catalyzer (your choice, depending on your local laws and needs)
BHR flywheel\exedy stage I clutch (just because you're swapping the flywheel)
AccessPORT and...
Mazmart water pump\thermostat and oil pressure mod since it gets damn hot there.
10w40 oil as well.

Just use the 5w30 they put in during the service an oil flush and then change back to 10w40, especially during summer. Hanging around with a thin oil and 43°c outside is not the best
There are good synthetics as well you may want to consider.

Battery relocation to the trunk. Helps with cooling, extends the battery life by getting it away from the underhood temps, plus moves weight from the front to the rear (better balance) I should be posting a diy real soon that is much easier then the other one listed.
