What bolton items can i get now for my DE that will be used in the future for a VE? Also if i use 1.8DE cams will it just change the powerband or will it increase my hp because they are more aggressive?

uh, I would rather go with s3 cams or even s4s. you may gain a little power with the 1.8de cams but I would save my money and go for the 15 hp gain on the s4s.

well how much are they and how much do they change the way the car runs?(will it lope?) who makes them and what is the difference in the two. keep in mind my car is stock sr20 im just trying to clean it up and get it ready for a swap maybe by
summer into next year. I need to do some things to the DE *** cause i need a little more thrill. I plan on ssac 2.5 and downpipe keep the cat and i dunno which vrs or magnaflow to get. ( any suggestions with reason would be great) Def getting an intake but duno which to get. Maybe some work to the ecu. suspension and brakes. Now if i get pullies will they switch over?

Pretty much externals - Pullies probably swap - talk to Dre. Else, you COULD get VE header (ports won't match, but hey), 2.5 or 3" exhaust; leave the intake alone; heavy clutch and pp, light flywheel, MSD ignition and coil. Wait on ecu. VRS will pack up a Magnaflow system for you.

why leave the intake alone? is there a Cai for a highport? VRS is a type of exhaust or a shop that makes it?
