all motor z31 is a waste of time. the cost involved in getting any performance out of it will severely overshadow any gains you may get. go turbo.

every time you have enough money saved to buy a performance part for you NA set it aside. Then eventually that will add up to the very small amount of money it takes to go turbo. With the turbo you'll have a much higher power output for much less money than it would take an NA to get to even the stock VG30ET power levels.

a complete VG30ET is probably going to cost less then a performance exhaust system will and you'll get 200HP instead of 161HP
