for big power gains look into a blower, or for smaller gains get simple boltons like exhaust, intake, & GEARS!!!

Unfortunately, nothing really comes "easy" for us 2valvers! If you want the biggest bang for the buck, I'd say nitrous hands down.

Decreasing the weight of your rotating masses is my favorite. Get some Steeda underdrive pulleys, FRPP Aluminum Driveshaft, and get some lightweight wheels and say hello to torque

I have an 02 with Borla exhaust and cold air kit already installed when I bought it. I just had 4:10s put in. I am planning on going to the track next Saturday (as long as weather cooperates). With a best of 13.86, I am hoping for a mid 13 with the gears. My next add will be a throttle body and possibly an O/R pipe.

This thread generally makes me head hurt...
but if you run nitrous, don't have the mindset of being cheap or you'll break ****. The cheapest kit would probably be a universal dry setup without fuel pressure or RPM safety switches. At least run a wet setup, with a window switch. Spending an extra 200$ now is a LOT better than spending 2000$ in the future for an engine rebuild, plus the 200$ you should have spent a long time ago on safety items.

For big HP on the cheaper side, nitrous is the way to go. But, I still consider it a pretty big mod. You might want to start on the easy engine boltons. They are cheaper and easier to do but, you will get less of a gain from them.

Great suggestions thus far folks, but let the name calling and potential squabbling end here!

Do Aluminum Flywheels really help out all that much? I have kinda always wondered this.

NO2 won't give you much power.




N2O on the other hand.........

I'm not too sure about an aluminum flywheel - because I drive an automatic - but anything you can do to lighten the load on the crank will free up some torque and HP and lighten the load on the engine.

also, lighter loads on the crank = faster revs
