Default Motor upgrades

So Ive been thinking of buying the indy intake the mpx tb an adapter the obx race header an a srt4 rear section. Does anyone think ill see any improvements with these parts, should i buy new valves an springs too, any reccomendations, Im tired of my car being slow. Tell me if those parts are worth spending 1000$ on or should I just save my money.

well i wouldnt get the obx race header just because if you dont have a cat, it will sound like crap and if you have that and a srt rear section you will have no bak pressure whatsoever. theres no need to get new valves and springs unless you wanna upgrade something else like the cam

I already have the OBX (Tsudo N1 cat-back (from Ebay)) and was planning on getting a hi-flow cat. So if I were to get the OBX race header, would that sound good, and/or have enough back pressure? Or is long-tube header the way to go?

You wont lose any back pressure with a glasspack on your srt rear exhaust.
