Re: Mods with 350k mi.?

Id go for it. I did not start modding mine until 250k and next in line is big injectors, turbonetics turbo, and more than likely a terminator.

Re: Mods with 350k mi.?

I would check the compression to be sure you don't make a problem. But I would also expect some parts to fail quicker perhaps.

Re: Mods with 350k mi.?

downpipe (or full turbo back exhaust) and a tymar intake would be great upgrades. I agree with Blindviper, compression test might not be a bad idea if you plan on chipping it.
