intake, headers, exhaust

weight reduction... (i.e. remove your passenger seat and back seat, roofliner, door panels...)

stickers (guaranteed 60-80hp)

www.turbonator.com... IMO the most effective investment

i agree. get the comptech icebox, headers and exhaust. that will set you off in the right direction. or you can always get a s/c

You should buy a new car.

Allmotor has a turbo kit... he throws down 419whp... you could try THAT. If you had 6-7g's, andanother 3-4g's for a transmission upgrade...

It's been mentionned already but I'll reinforce what was said.

1. Intake (good for 10whp)
2. Headers (good for 30whp)
3. Small mods such as pulleys, thermoblok spacers, etc.

Forget the exhaust, it won't give more than 1 or 2hp on our cars.

If you want to go big, get a Comptech supercharger on top of intake/headers and then get an exhaust too because in a supercharged setup, it will yield more hp.

Or, forget intake/headers, and do a custom turbo setup. That's the most expensive alternative, but the most powerful.

The question is... what is your goal, and how much money do you have to spend?

Don't forget that once you go increase your car's acceleration capabilities, you should do the same for handling and braking.

Good luck!
