HI Guys, i am new to this Forum however i am after a few quick tips.
I have bought a 07 SR I30 about 6 months ago. I am used to building a rather different type of car and was just going to use this as a work car.. However.. i am starting to get over the lack of power for this engine.

I am currently dropping it down on King Springs and slapping a set of 20'' rims. I will be gettin larger diameter headers and stainless 2 1/2 inch exhaust and K&N flter.

however i am wonder if anone knows if there are an other mods that can be done ie remap/chip etc or if i should just shave the head and bring copression down etc?

Was thinking Turbo or Clutch type Charger (4agze style) however warranty people will hang me if i blow a piston :) at least with shaved head they are not really gonna be able to tell it is running higher comp. (of course 20's wil be off if it goes to warranty)

any ideas or methods would be appreciated. Cheers
