RE: D17 TURBO
cool, or should i skip the turbo and find other ways to increase hp and keep it NA, how much hp gain could i get by installing quality headers, full exhaust system, intake. Is it possible to add nitrous to these cars, with the D17 motor?

You will see higher gains with a turbo, but you'll need fuel management, a tune, upgraded fuel system, etc.
So figure out what your goals are and you'll have a better idea of how to go about it.

I think i will go with a NA setup for know, I dont want to fool around with the fuel system right now, i plan to attack this project one step at a time so it is easier on the wallet, what part should i upgrade first, i was thinking the header and intake?

I wouldnt upgrade the i/h/e if your planing on turboing later on. Cas then it all comes off and the turbo kit replaces it. [air intake replaced by intercooler pipes, headers replaced my manifold, and exaust needs to be wider so you will need a different one.]
