So I bought this sportser last year and everyone said I'd grow out of it but I figured they were full of ****. Well it's happened. My become a sluggish, unresponsive bore.

I've got $1500 to put into the motor and want to get the most bang for my buck. I know there are a ton of post on boring out too 1200cc and that's my plan so far, but what parts? What formula?

Thanks for taking a look. Any links to useful threads are welcomed and any info on builds you've done would be great too. As the short rain season approaches in San Diego I'm getting more and more obsessed with this subject so anything at all helps. Trip out to slab city. Most recent.
