What's next after an intake and HKS plugs

[RobotLunch]

I just installed the Injen air Intake and installed HKS plugs in my '19 2.0 Stinger. And I could not be happier.

I was wonder if a BOV or oil catch can should be next on my list or go for the JB4 ECU.

Welcome to the Stinger Forum community @RobotLunch

You will get waaaaay more bang for your buck with the JB4 Performance Tune we sell, than a BOV or Oil Catch Can.

However, installing an oil catch can is definitely something we recommend to help with preventative maintenance.

I hyperlinked the JB4 & our Oil Catch Can Product Collection above so that you can check them out on our site.

Let us know if we can be of assistance by answering any questions, or providing you with a discount on your purchase.

BOV would be purley for looks/sounds. The stinger's BOV is actually built decently well (vs all my previous cars where the BOV was not even reliably sufficent for stock levels).

Oil catch can is something you for sure should have to help slow down the carbon buildup on GDI engines. I would recomend that first simply because that will help with engine longevity.

After that I would either get jb4 or air scoops.

If you like twistys then sway bars make a world of difference.

I second this. No need to touch the BOVs unless you just like more noise. The stock diverter valves and very good and they sound nice when you up the boost.

OCC is beneficial in terms of keeping your engine alive longer. I have heard talk that you may lose a small amount of power with an OCC, but I cannot confirm and even if you do, it's a maybe 5HP. Not really a lot.

If you plan on making big, reliable power and go with an ECU, I suggest purchasing a differential brace if you are going going to be doing hard launches. Burger has one for sale, it got rid of my wheel hop.

I got speedy bov for my 2.0 and used the longer horn it came with. Gave me endless giggles with its pew pew noises.

I would go JB4, you got the spark plugs to support (hopefully gapped at 0.022), and you have intakes. The JB4 is the next, cheapest, upgrade you can do to obtain a lot more HP. I would then go scoops or intercooler to help support the JB4 and intakes. This is solely my opinion and what I have done with my stinger.
