The key is the cost benefit of a mod and the general consensus is for NA the cost is high for small benefits. Whether it’s worth it, depends on your wallet and what you want out of your car. I am staying NA, so headers, air filter, tune and power blocks are it for me powerwize. Suspension mods, tires, lightweight wheels will be my focus in the future.
