if a header only gets 4hp then why is that all people say intake, header and exhaust?

because in order to get much more power then those things you are gonna end up spending a few grand to get any real difference. intake headers and exhaust dont make it much faster. maybe shave a half second TOPS off of your quarter.

and really they say intake, exhaust manifold and exhaust for turbo cars.. this is because it helps get the air in and out of the turbo and engine better.. it helps a turbo engine much more than a n/a

your only part right with that... but an intake is hardly a first mod on a turbo car.  it is not even nessassary untill after exhaust MBC and a few other essensails.  The Exhaust manifold is another.. its not a HUGE first mod thing there is plenty to do and gain alot of power without those two things

Dude that is not true though... Most people with a turbo car dont get intake or manifolds within there first 5 mods.  The poeple who get an intake only do it because they are cheap... Intake adds ZERO HP to a turbo car all it does is make the turbo louder it doesnt help power untill your making alot of it.   Intakes are cheap that is the only reason for people to buy them.   First 3 mods on a turbo car should always be a bost gauge a MBC and an Exhaust ALWAYS

i don't think he wants to spend a few grand. for now any way.  That's just what i would do if i had 400 dollars and was in his position.

I know people running 35R 500awhp setups on a ported stock manifold. You really dont need to change it
