If yer not into nitrous you could throw in some 4:10 gears and get a tuner.
these cars are pretty pricey to upgrade. what do you feel like spending?

lol....
Seriously... its about 30 bucks a HP at its best with these cars. That gets expencive pretty fast. You can spend 1,500 on boltons and yer still not much faster than stock. lol

I am a firm believer that every Car should have a power adder, because well . . it adds power.
bolt ons arnt worth the time, and big engine mods wont do too much untill you have a power adder.
SO, that being said N20 is the cheapest.
tlok, gears tune and a 100shot of N20 (NX) will throw you into the 13's if you can drive i figure thats the cheapest way

if your looking for foglights I found some nice ones from VMP Tuning that are clear and clean-looking, to match my headlights, and its a full upgrade for 6's, wiring and all to an OEM switch that mounts below the stereo....probly to one of the dead buttons(I hate those) for about $155. Dont know if it's worth it, but I want fogs that look stock and everything and it looks like a good price. Here's the site:

well consitering you only go WOT for a few seconds, it would stand to reason that you would only need the power for a few seconds .. . right?

WOT = wide open throttle
to elaborate on my arguement, you dont drive at WOT all the time, obviously you dont use 100% of your horsepower all the time, regardless of your power adder etc, so why is not having N20 100% of the time a problem?

Hehe

Cant argue with a car getting 100extra hp and almost 200 extra tq with a $350 mod.
