My next mod decision is tearing me apart! lol please help :D

It's going to be a very long time until my next upgrade after this. And I'm having a hard time choosing. I looked through the other threads regarding of next mod decisions, which were no help.
It's between an EF2 or rpf1, or maybe something small.

I have all the basic bolt ons, upgraded fuel and tuned on e85.

exterior are all stock besides window visor

thanks in advance for your opinions :thumbup:

thanks for the responds
Turbo all the Way !! Alot more fun than new wheels.
turbo.
get the turbo! then you will need new tires sooner at which point you get wheels
Turbo is a no brainer.
I would rather spend the money on go fast instead of look good so I say turbo!
Turbo = stress and worry about your stock internals, the added price of retune, etc etc...

Only problem with the RPF1s is they can kiss a curb, your turbo can't (well, it CAN... but that'd be the least of your concerns at that point).

Only problems with the turbo are the longevity of your stock block and your new tune.

On E85 you'll likely need new injectors unless you're tremendously oversized for E85 on stock turbo already and have the headroom for the extra flow.

(I voted RPF1)
rpf1's= less of a headache... Reliability is a great piece of mind but to each his own..

I have 1000cc injectors, will it not be enough for the EF2?

Thanks everyone for the answers. It's almost 50/50 between them. Turbo will be much more fun than wheels. decisions decisions.
I asked myself that same question before. With a bigger turbo on E85, you won't be able to take advantage of the added power because of the stock internals. The added power won't be worth the turbo, turbo installation, parts to get everything running & the retune. Get some wheels for sure, a lot cheaper and it will change the look of your car drastically. With E85 on the stock turbo, you have enough power anyways :p
And nothing is more fun than a stock turbo on E85, instant spool!
RPF1's and swift spec r's
RPF1's and eibach's
fixed. lol
The stock X wheels are already nicer than the majority of aftermarket wheels; get the turbo.
Not a fan of the stock wheels. :p
