If it were me, I'd try and save up another $500 or so for a turbo kit, it's going to be the most noticible power gain for ~~$3k. Then later on you could worry about the cams... but then again, installation and accessories from a turbo kit can add up

if my calculations are right the kit will cost $4193cdn and another 1200 for shipping and handling and installation

Don't get the exhaust... since you'll want to change it later if you get the turbo......
If you don't wanna get the turbo, then get the cams, exhaust and a header and some nice wheels.
