Hey guys i have a little money saved (kind of) and i am thinking on spending it all in my car. So here is the deal... with the mods i have, What would be the best choice for me to do next?
My actual modifications (basic) consist of:
b20b (p8r)
Ls ecu
fpr
intake/ headers(4-2-1)/exhaust (2.25 straight pipe)
LS intake manifold
LS tranny (7lb flywheel,stage 2 clutch)

What i was thinking of:
-get some crower 403's (with springs ,retainers and came gears) and tune it or..
-Do a Mild port and polished first and later (way later) do cams,intake manifold,little bit bigger throttle body,but Would it be beneficial to do a mild port and polished to the head with the mods i have? or...
-Just save my money for later and do it all together ( which it will take me a while since i am using my wife's and i taxes return without her to noticed haha).

Just keep in mind that this is my daily driver, that i am trying to stay all motor, and if you guys think that i need to get any modification before i do any of this, just let me know. Any information from personal experience or suggestions will help me make a decision!
Thank you!

First, I didn't feel my B20 ran as well as it should on the LS ecu. However, it ran well enough. Uhm, but if I had it to do all over again... I would've

404's w/ matching valvetrain (springs/retainers)
Tune.

The P8R head is a blessing in disguise, I don't see a need to port it if you're just wanting to cam/tune. If it were an all out build, then yes. But its just going to cost more than if you just swapped cams and tuned. You'd need a new top end gasket set first and foremost.

Cams, valvetrain and tune.

Done.

If you are getting a bigger throttle body, do a port match.
