First major upgrades?

IF I bought a TII, and it was bone stock, what kind of upgrades are good to start with and will get me the best results? And about how much will they cost?

Damn, there was just another thread similar to this...

Rewire fuel pump power wire
Upgrade fuel pump
Exhaust
Intake
FCD

A little over $1,000 and 250bhp at 12psi...this car will do 13's down the 1/4-mile.

A tune up replacing spark plugs, spark plug wires, belts, all filters, most hoses, and all fluids and checking timing and TPS should be first.

The cars run pretty good when running right.

Instead of posting over and over asking the same question, try the SEARCH feaure. Also, there's this wondefull thing called Google.CA, which I'm sure would help...

Would you like to argue with me about the usefullness of my posts? Go ahead.

What I noticed was that there were 6 different instances in which you asked for parts and pricing in Canada...4 here, two in the Canadian forum (under two different topics). Have you considered making a little effort and finding the answers yourself? Remember that the forum has been around a lot longer than you have been here, and everything that can be asked, has. It is standard netiquette to search before you ask.

I have looked alot more then you think, I used google, aswell as search, but I have not found anything with prices of the stuff I need in Canadian... and I realize not everyone reads my thread the first time, so I was just asking the question to bump the thread to the top of the page again, incase anyone knew of some sites.
