Do the h/e/I upgrade like said, an aftermarket ecu and then boost. That'll be your best option. Have some fun till you blow it up or get bored, the. Either go b series, or if you got the cash K.
However, I recommend doing all the structural supporting mods first. Your coilovers, camber arms, control arms, sway bars, strut bars, brakes etc. Once you've done this, then start worrying about power. Power is useless if the car isn't designed to support it.

so much LOLWAT to this post.

Why is I/H/E then ECU then boost best option. to me sounds like doing a lot of things for nothing.

your so called structural mods.

coilovers - why
camber arms - why
sway bars - why

why does he need to upgrade that. Why does he need to upgrade that 1st?

Because if he doesn't do that, decided to scrap the d series and throw in a k or b with the car unable to support the engine, then he's stuck running a car that maybe unsafe and is left second handling everything.
Intake heads and exhaust are the basic. Make him a little power until, or if he decides to go boost. Ecu, if you want to make power you are always going to need to tune.

[Dyln.bxtr]

Give me your reading as to why not and what you would recommend, short of scrapping the d or jumping straight to boost.

I am also bit wot

Why buy intake and headers when you gonna change them when boost anyway?

Stock suspension is fine for that too, who cares

Holden drivers got cut Springs with supercharger they have no issues

[Dyln.bxtr]

Holdens with superchargers also make shit all power in a tank of a chassis.
He wanted to know what he could do to it. Typical mods are HEI. If he wanted to later, then maybe go boost.
Hell, HEI are cheap enough and high enough demand that he could sell it off afterwards anyways.

I'm barely out of high school....
And that's why I said recommend. Not must.

And please tell me you're not being serious about the camber and sways...

to be honest i wouldnt be taking advice on safety (or anything car related) from a kid who has drum brakes and flips his lca upside down.

[Dyln.bxtr]

That's the reason I'm telling him to do it all before hand. Learn from my mistakes.
