You can have a stocker ported for about 170 at PPI. O2 housing ~ 90 bucks.

depends on what you want to use the car for. for one you could save it til you can afford a fuel pump and a good tune, if your gona track it a bunch in the spring maybe brake upgrade (lines, rotors, pads) or a harness to hold you in better (i know i know, you need a cage, bare etc), larger rear sway? but the great thing about our cars is with 250 you have many options. gl let us know what you decide

well, if you're getting ready for some track, then why don't you buy one of these things:

1. Helmet (a must)
2. Better brake pads+fluid
3. Harness

Thats a pretty good decision right there. I'm not sure about stock injectors, but they max out pretty fast along with the fuel pump. So if you do JUST fuel pump, dont expect to turn up the boost much more without injectors.

I would say either Walbro Fuel Pump, Injectors, LICP or 02 housing would be your best choice power wise.

Harness is gonna be expensive.
Brakes isn't bad though.

Brand new 4point harness (like G-force is around $200)

Takata is $360 new, used you can definately find for $250. Also I would say for the track pads and fluid would make the most sense

Personally, I would never purchase used cams. Or at least used cams for $250.. If something goes wrong your engine could end up done.
