Is Mini-ram worth it??
Im getting ready to spend some money on my car and was wondering what you mini-ram guys think about it? I was thinking either the Trick Flow 23* heads or the mini-ram. I know I have to get the fuel rail kit and I plan on getting Ed Wright to reburn my custom chip for it, I was just wondering what you guys think. See my mods bellow

Do the heads first. Otherwise, you'll have this high-flowing intake with mediocre flowing heads. If you haven't ported your plenum yet, do it. It's cheap. Either do it yourself, or send it to me and I'll do it for sixty bucks.

The MiniRam works best when it is coupled with good flowing heads and a big cam. I wouldn't slap a miniram on a stock thirdgen. Do the heads first ... heh heh - might as well do a cam swap at the same time.
Don't waste your money on the fuel rail kit. Just add some braided SS lines. I bought the fuel rail kit an never used it. I used SS lines instead.
