you will end up paying 4k, and with this 4k you're pretty close for SC kit from GTM

Some ppl prefer bolts on (i was one of them) and some ppl save money to buy FI kit.

its your choice.
Do you have the GTM SC installed? If so what are you putting out at the rear wheels?

Perfect.

I, like you, will probably be going turbo some where down the line. I still need to finish my suspension, then brakes. Let us know when you start getting more serious about it!

I'm going to get the bolt on upgrades within the next 2 months 'weather permitting'. I am pricing out shops now. I will post up Photo's and the before and after dyno results.

I know cause I just bought them lol I am going with those with some drop-ins... I didn't like the idea of removing the bumper to clean filters just for a few more HP, I live in FL where it is super dusty and sandy so my filters need to be cleaned often.

Dont have to break the bank to get performance from bolt ons, choose wisely, get the best gain for your $$, dont get caught up in the hype, do your research.
I want FI so budget my bolt on mods accordingly.
I can ,and have made good power at the fraction of the cost of the big boy brands and will continue to do so, modding has always been a hobby, I have lost money but also made money, its swings and roundabouts.
If you want to FI later but want to play for now then pick wisely, be prepaired to loose some cash on resale, and make sure the parts you buy initially are attractive to other forum members when the time comes to let them go.
Enjoy your Z dude, its a fun ride but def needs more zip!
