I have 850 bucks and i want to spend it on performace mods how would you spend the 850. Right now my engine is stock. I will get a turbo soon so i dont' wnat anything i have to take out when i install a turbo.
you can redo your internals if you are gonna be running a high PSI.......im not too smart with engines sorry. i dont think u want an intake because you have to change them when you go tubro i think. sorry im not much help

your internals should be fine for turbo if you run 5-7 psi i would port and polish the head or at least port them
if i upgrade my pistions and get a pully kit and some headers?

Ok a couple things...
Upgrading your pistons isn't an easy job. You basically have to take apart your motor and is not an easy job. I'm assuming you're not a mechanic so that means you have to pay someone to do it which can be a pretty penny. If you're going to upgrade your pistons, you should upgrade your connecting rods.
Now, what I suggest you do, since you're planning on turbo'ng soon...get parts that will provide you additional power with your turbo setup. I would invest in an intake & a 2 1/2" exhaust system (minus the header)...that should take care of your $850. If you have money left over or next time around you can get a bigger throttle body and possibly some type of Fuel Management system for future tuning purposes.
Your stock pistons & rods should be fine for the time being on low PSI #s (reyes brown said).
If you have anymore questions, just ask.

njhk i love ur dam projectors!!
Alright thanks guys! I have to dig around maybe i might just wait and save it and buy turbo and fmu and exhuast all at once. Its hard to decide on what to buy because there is so much out there but i agree with you njhk about get stuff that will provide you additional power to the turbo, I been looking at cavalier connections turbos and i think will order from them, Just hate that it will take about a month to get here.
Might I suggest lowering the car. It looks DAMN good but it could do with less wheel gap
Semper Fi SAINT. May you rest in peace.
if yo want a turbo, no need to spend money on a header or an intake. get engine mounts, bigger TB, connecting rods and pistons
Im a Xbox 360 fanboy...and damn proud of it!!
ya i def need to lower it, but until i buy a beater i will keep it at this height because my everyday travel to work i hit some rough roads, but once i get a beater then i will lower the @!#$ out of it.
