RE: Power
Not much you can do for cheap? Bump your timing a little. After that if cost $$$. Even bumping timing will cost in the long run because you have to use premium. Give us an honest number as far as what your budget is and we can make reccomendations.

RE: Power
you can get more power by shrinking that sig pic!
seriously tho upgrade: gears, exhaust, heads, cam, intake, fuel system, ignition system.
then add a supercharger.
other than that, engine swap
or... NAWWWZ

RE: Power
I would pop a supercharger or turbo kit on there before I did heads cam and intake, if I could rewind and redo things over again. I would go in this order: 3.27 or 3.55 gears with a good posi, then do turbo kit along with other things like injectors fuel pump and ignition coil at the same time,then add bolt-ons from there like throttle body intake and cam. Take it from someone who went with the heads cam and intake swap, I wouldtake forced induction beforeHCI any day. The only think that makes it hard is that is one big lump sum to drop all at once. You figure 3,000 for your turbo kit, 650 for injectors and fuel pump and coil, and then another 500-700 in a dyno tune/chip.

$5,000 retail but can be found for cheaper through some vendors. Comes with every possible thing you need to bolt on and drive.

Sorry to hijack, I'll just be quiet now, since I already gave my 2 cents

RE: Power
Well i'm still in highschool, so I dont have much money, and I was looking at getting a cam, new gears, and underdrive pulleys. Will that do me anygood? also a cai kit. Would getting those be worth the while?
