i was wondering if it makes sense to do the induction upgrade without the exhaust upgrade, i don't have the cash to both right now but i would like to do the induction. my car is completly stock right now. if this makes sense which induction is the best. i have thought about true-revs and sho-shop. any info would help, thanks.

you should really try to do both at the same time. I personally dont know which would be better to do first, but if i were u i would save my money and do both right after the other.

Exactly. You will see the most benifit when both are done, but you can do one and the other later.

Do the exhaust 1st. Why? Getting more in won't do you any good if you can't get it out! Plus...the 1st time you go WOT with a meatier exhaust note...pure smiles!!!

but doing the exhaust wont get any more out if there isn't any more going in. again chicken and eggs. plus the 1st time you stomp the throttle and hear that air getting sucked in...pure smiles!!!
your wallet determines which u do first.

I disagree...its not chicken or egg. The MAF and TB already flow enough to support 200+ HP...kinda why people use them for their 3.0 Hybrid projects....but the exhaust is a real limiting factor with getting the flow out of the engine. Do the exhaust 1st (if you use some common sense...and the search feature..you can do your exhaust cheaply and efficiently, and have money to spare for a nice intake) then intake.

so if a rooster lays an egg on top of a roof right in the middle, which way does the egg roll off?
