Do heads and cams and get a tune. You don't need headers but if you have the extra cash then do it.

Mid pipe

STS

thats without going into the motor and probably wont get you 300 hp.

you could do Cams but you should do Heads too while youre in the motor, er thats what i would do. if you can do stuff like that then get heads and cams. but install would be killer.

or you could do a supercharger but i just said the NA route

i dont think that would get him 300Whp but if hes looking for crank it could happen.

i suggest a used s/c also, will get you a good ways above your goal and will be safe if you run conservitatve boost.\

sexy said the n/a route... i however would never take out a loan for just performance...

Get a S/C and install it running low boost and then save until you can forge the engine and up the boost.

This is a pretty canned speech from me. I wish I would have done that.
