there is no such thing.. everything costs an arm and a leg, and does absoloutly nothing [8D]..... Seriously tho, the most noticable thing would be gears and a tuner, then on the horsepower front, a midpipe

The gears recommended for N/A 4v are anywhere from 4.10s to 4.30s because they like to rev. If it is a F/I 4v then alot of people say that 3.73 works well. The gears don't actually give you any power, but they are mechanical devices that help to keep you in the power range.

so gears just create the engine spool, to hold your rpm range and power band?
