turbo wont be for a decent time so header is just a small performance booster while im in the build up stages of the project. There only like $150.

Hotshot and Pacesetter are basically the same. Just get whatever is cheaper, especially since you're just going to get rid of it eventually.

I'd say it cheaper to piece togeather a turbo kit.......Its really cheap when you have a guy who gives you all kinds of shit like injectors, a T25 off of his SR and other shit........T25 are cheap, its a start......SS autochrome and revtech (I think it is) has a pretty decent manifold (T25/28 bottom mount) for a fairly good price........I would also agree with greaser on the pistons deal, and if I'm not mistaken the rings are pretty weak......A good freshening would be in order as well......I have heard of a good cheap trick for flowing the head better, take a 91 KA exhaust cam have it machined to get the pin to fit on the intake cam side and you will open up a lot more duration on the intake side.....Emanage is a good setup for the KAT but TEC2/3 would be better......If you get the greddy E0-1 boost controller you can program the emanage without a laptop as well.......
A JWT ECU would be the best bet for the non tunning joe that just wants a powerfull car with little time consumption......
