Hi All, I am currently running a BA ute, with 044 inline, DEKA 60's, atomic 698 engine, Nizpro original intercooler and Process west battery re-location and csutome big pipe from intercooler to process west throttle body re-location, then to the stock intake manifold. Exhaust is stock including turbo, then 3.5" CES system all through. All supporting mods are done (brakes, clutch, suspension) I recently aquired some cams 10 degrees bigger than the BF cams. I believe the difference in performance between the BA and BF is largely cams. I expect that the 20+ extra duration will help. I have an opportunity to visit the tuner soon. My long term upgrade is intake ( maybe plazmaman or better), obviously install cams, merge cone exhaust manifold (and seperate wastegate and what-not), and a GTX4294 (1.01 for quick spool). A GTX4294R is about 3K right now and seems like the last thing to do in my list of mods I do not see this as ideal in 1 go. I'd like to contain financial hit while maximising the bang for buck. Option 1. Intake manifold and cams, I can do the piping to the TB myself and be ready for tune, with a small outlay, I fear I may be missing out on a large percentage of the cams potential this way. Option 2. , I could do the exhaust to a merge cone collector in to a T4 divided GT3582 (already have), but with new turbine housing and external wastegates, with a view to supporting the 4294 down the track. (wastage is buying a turbing housing that will not be used long term. Option 3. Do the intake, exhaust manifold (retaing GT3582) and cams. Option 4. Do the complete Exhaust manifold and gtx4294 at the same time. But leave the intake. Option 5. Do the lot. So gents, what do you advise? Cheers, Chris.
