Ignition, MAF, full exhaust, Gears, shifter - way better but no hp help, little stuff that you can do like timing, new plugs and wires.</P>


Going deeper, get some PI heads, intake manifold, TB, injectors, fuel pump/regulator, new clutch.</P>

yeah a larger throttle body, headers, cat-back exhaust will give u a nice gain <IMG src=smileys/smiley1.gif border="0">and than maybe a cat-delete pipe/test pipe or a hi-flo cat.

Nothing, even if you upgraded your ignition, what you have now is fine.</P>
