    hey everyone, I've been slowly adding some mods working my way to upgrade to a 50 trim and I guess I just wanna know what else is a must before I upgrade. I already have the turbo, but I guess I'm gonna need the manifold and 02 housing. I have a 3'' turboback, Perrin SRI, AGP wastegate, short throw shifter, and a walbro 255 fuel pump. I'm guessing I'm gonna need bigger injectors and a fuel return line? maybe a BFMIC, SAFC II, a fuel rail, and wideband gauge? I just wanna make a list of what to get and in what order so any ideas you guys have for me would be greatly appreciated. If you guys have any of this stuff for sale or know a good place to get it. Also, wondering what kind of experiences with N2O you guys have had on these cars, because I want more hp, but I dont wanna melt anything lol. well, any input is appreciated thanks a lot guys.

    you'll definetly need to take care of the fuel if you want to get some nice power out of that 50 trim. injectors, return line, and fc (dtec, neo, etc) will take care of that. you'll for sure need a wideband to monitor your a/f's.

    after that it's kind of up to you. you have a exhaust and intake already, but you have lots of options as to what other mods to get. throttle body, fmic, cams, gears, pnp head, the list is endless! it's all about what kind of power you want to make and what you want to spend.

    i have never run nitrous on my neon so i'll leave that question to those that have.

    AGP WGA is useless with a .50. You will need an external WG.
