Bolts-ons before the big turbo upgrade on SR...

what bolt-ons would be yeild the best and most reliable HP? I'm really new to the SR motor, and I've done tons of searchin but i can never find a real explanation for what is being said.

here are my current mods...(performed by Heavy Throttle)

Apex N1 Daul 3''Cat back system
Mild steel 3'' Test Pipe
Coated 3'' Down pipe
ACT HD Clutch Pressure Plate
NISMO 3 Puck Sprung Clutch Disk
Stock Side Mount Intercooler
Cone Intake Filter
Greddy pulley kit
Greddy profect A boost Controller
Greddy Turbo Timer
Autometer Phantom Boost Gauge
Autometer Oil Pressure Gauge
Eibach Prokit Springs
KYB AGX Adj Struts and schocks
New Radiator
Permacool 14' High Performance fan w/ adjustable thermostat


im not quite sure how much HP im making currently, but boy oh boy, it does feel nice

Definately in the coming weeks are a FMIC kit, Walbro 255, and bov- from what i understand, boost can be adjusted up to 14 lbs with just these mods.

What else should i look for, and which will yeild the best results/best bang per buck?

Newbie asking for help

Thanx guys

i dunno about the SR20's as i mostly deal with 1jz's and 7m's, but i know one guy got a lightweight flywheel and gained 20HP in the low end on the 7m. might wanna give that a try, as a revvy engine like the SR20 must really suck down low.

i havn't exactly raced it yet from a dead stop, but full boost comes at about 3500-3750 rpms. Its not too bad.

i would like to get a little more out of that motor without sacrificing much reliability.
