Trying to figure out here what I want to do with my car end of this year and this winter. I am leaning towards the mod path compared to trading it for a Gen 4. With the exception of the hood, there isn't many visuals or reasons that will lean me to the Gen 4, I just want the extra 100hp.
Curious to get some opinions to anyone with a heads/cam Gen III if they wished they would just paxton the car instead. Here are my 2 options:
1: Paxton kit with exhaust, 650-700RWHP, ~10K-12K invested
2: Intake, Cat-Back, headers, Hi-flow cats, GG heads, ported intake, Cam, Tune, ~600RWHP??, Cost = ??
Am I accurate with my N/A HP guess?
I would THINK that a N/A car would have less stress on the motor than a SC build, thus leading to better reliability. The downside, obviously, is you don't get as much power.
Any opinions on which way to go? Haven't been able to get info on Gen III N/A builds. (My goal is 575+ RWHP)
Thanks!
