RE: hp
Well there's not much you can do to get a huge hp gain, but you can get a decent gain, by adding on a set of underdrive pulleys, retuning your ecu, adding on a high flow throttle body and a 73mm MAF, 3.73 or 4.10 gears with a t-lok, reducing your cars weight by removing the rear seats and adding in racing front seats. That's about all of the basic mods. You won't gain but maybe 25-50 rwhp, depending on year, with all of this at best, but your performance will be much better. Other more advanced mods would be installing a performance camshaft, installing NOS, adding on a new ignition system, putting on higher weight fuel injectors, a high output alternator, a 6 sp transmission, or a performance 5 sp or performance auto, adding on an engine upgrade kit like the 4.2L kit on rdmotorsport.com, or some other 3.8L kit. A supercharger would be the best bang for the buck, but if you really want performance you should consider doing all of these mods, but remember your car would intern eat gas like a fat man at a pie eating contest.
