Question So what next....?

OK guys, I am 17 and own a '94 Z28 A4. I did the basic mods over the summer with my summer job and know I am wanting to do get into it a little more.

Right now they consist of a Hooker Catback exhaust, Hollowed cat, K&N intake, TB bypass mod, ported MAF, 160 stat, got rid of Air pump.

So what I am asking is what else should i do next?

Right now I have the speed limiter on it from the factory, so I was thinking off getting the Hypertech to get rid of that and improve shift points and other specs.

I was also thinking of headers and y-pipe. Any suggestions for a kid with a low budget?

Thanks a lot in advance for the suggestions guys.

O and heres a pic of my car from the other day. Tell me what you think of her so far....

Don't get Hypertech whatever you do.

What kind of headers are you thinking about getting? Shorties, longtubes?

Headers seem like they would be the best next thing to do. Followed by some gears.

The only way the Hypertech would be worth while is for a gear change. You can reprogram your speedo for the gear change, but that's about all that it is good for. Gears would be a good thing to do. What rear end do you have now?

Right now I have the stock 2.73s which totally blow for coming out of the hole. What company do you recommend and I take it I should go with 3.73s?
