What is an FSE FPR?
What kind of money you looking at spending? The usual mods are exhaust, extractors etc for budget jobs keeping it N/A, or if you're loaded, you might want to look at forced induction like turbo or super charger..

Personally I would go a supercharger. Get one custom built for real gains. It should be better than a turbo, as most of acceleration of a Magna is in the lower rev range, than compared to something like a skyline. And it sounds better too! Don't like a car that sneezes.. :P

lol haven't heard that one before!
I wonder if it's possible to buy some parts out of the sprintex kit and then make some custom stuff to get more ponies out of the supercharger.

a cittirus...he just S/c'd his car, but it seems the S/C option is very limited, turbo on the other hand is sorta like you can go as far as you want depending on your cash..
basically if you wanna know about super chargin as cittirus
if you wanna know about twin turbos ask black beard
they have done it so they know as much about it as you need know really
Big money: turbo
Small money: extractors + hampster

I already have a turbo car so if I would get another it will be a Evo. My budget is endless because I save up till I get enough. I'm thinkin about port n' polish or headers. I already have some mods I am just having a hard time figuring out what to do next. :D

Let me start by saying - nice car dude :cool: . What engine is it running? DOHC 3L??
There's really 3 options for HP gains, but there are only 2 things that make torque, big displacement engines (not an option unless you want to drop a V8 in your car), or boost.
There are a few guys now getting very nice NA power out of our 3.5L's with what I consider considerable engine work, (cams, increased compression, ported heads etc) and full replacement ECU's.
The other options of course are supercharging. Either belt driven, exhaust gas driven, or press a button to inject a measured amount of NOS into the engine.
Given that your car is a Diamante - the Sprintex kit would be out of the option, and given that your engine is probably orientated the oposite way to our 3rd gens, I don't like your chances of being able to use RPW's Twin Turbo manifolds and dump pipe as a base for a turbo istallation. So it's starting to look like whatever option you take - it will be a full custom job.
