What did u have done to your car with the 1.7 kb?

When I had it on the stock engine I only had the IC KB with the 'big tube' cold air kit. other mods were a cat back.

I then forged the engine, added a cam and off road H-pipe. Then I came to the conclusion that the 1.7L is too small for a low compression engine. IAT2's are sky high. This kit was engineered for a stock engine pushing 400/400.. basically the limit of the stock block.
