4.10s if you plan on staying N/A. \
3.73s if you are going to go FI.

Best bang for your buck.

MGW Shifter is highly reviewed as well. Mine is on the way

jesus, at least make an effort


your car doesn't have tbi and a MAF isn't going to do anything but drain your wallet.

as mentioned before gears won't add power but will drastically change the way the car drives as will an aftermarket shifter (if it's a 5spd)

best bang for the buck is going to be a full PI swap with used parts and before you ask try the search button, comes in quite handy

i would get the engine checked out before doing any performance mods to it, especially if u are looking into F/I. although the modulars can go for much more, it has a lot of mileage on it regardless. just something to think about
