I never told him to upgrade his turbos or cams! That list is what my idea of the perfect street Z would be!
Now 96rbs14 is on a buget, I doubt he wants to spent $700-800 plus shipping on 2.5 intercooler piping and the $1000-2000 for a complete 3" exhaust when he has most of the mods he will need for his current goals with the car! Remember this is a DD I don't think he want to squeeze out every single hp he can get out of it, it sounds to me that he is trying to be practical with his Z! and like I said in my previous post get a catback (if all he did was weld on some mufflers), clutch, and dyno tune the car with all the other mods he listed he has and I would bet that he could be around 350whp!

the mods he listed are "OK" but won't really do anything worth while.
i completly agree with the whole 3" Exhaust set up and 2.5" Intercooler piping, throttle bodies and ported upper plenum.. that will yield the best gains results and power. sure ruzzel got 1000whp out of his Z back in the day on a 2.5" dual exhaust. but he also had nitrous and 2.5" intercooler setup.
Stock Turbo 2.5" Piping and 3" exhaust is really the way to go. don't waste your time with a 2.5" exhaust. run dual 3" specialty Z exhaust and get the Concept Z intercooler pipe kit. Z1 throttles with plenum. then call seb over at specialty z to make you a chip.
