what to do... what to do

[four20]

ok, so i was going to do at least one thing to my car this week, on top of getting the wheels aligned, but im only looking to spend $150 or less.

i was wondering what you guys think would be the best idea. i want to turbo my ka down the road, but dont know what to do first in order to get ready for the turbo.

all opinions welcome.

and orlando? where at...

hmm $150 or less u say ..

well 1) get an egr block off plate, remove butterflies in intake mani - $20

2) get a grounding kit , spark plug wires and msd coil ~150

what does the EGR plate do?

what does the EGR plate do?

its a block off plate - blocks air from going into downpipe.

i.e more air in intake manifold.

and one of the things that will eventually have to be done when going ka-t
