So want some advice

current mods
Hurricane extractors & y-pipe
De-cat
Muffler delete(not really a mod)
system is basically straight piped
CAI

considering
larger TB
port & polish
After market ecu/retune


is there anything else i can do in N/A form with out spending big coin?

I was planning on turbo'ing it but now I'm not 100% on what i want to do. thinking of just modding in N/A and buying a chaser.
If i turbo'ed it and aimed for around 200kw would i struggle to get power down? and just torque steer all over the place?

Piggyback ECU will make a big difference

You won't make 200kw on the 6A12 safely unless you decomp and run forged internals.

Larger TB (a Magna one is 65mm, so 5mm oversize and is a direct bolt on. I think you need to enlarge the opening on the manifold though) and a tune would probably be as far as you would go.
Port and polish would be nice but this is a really expensive procedure, not to mention needing to take heads off etc.

65mm TB, direct fit but will have to grind the TB opening on the plenum to suit, piggyback ecu, then could go larger injectors, but not really needed

thermal blocks +size valves if there is clearance for the pistons ,stroker kit if available and a custom plenum chamber but for all that cash you could go engine swap 6A13tt or 4G63evo7.
