QUOTE(Cutrara @ Sep 12, 2005 - 3:24 PM) Let's just end this now, before this guy's topic gets locked. [right][snapback]333382[/snapback][/right] I agree. Bigmeanbulldog, a full exhaust on a stock normally aspirated car will make no difference other than noise. A cold air intake will add a couple horsepower but it will also increase noise. Synthetic oil does NOTHING for power. My question is why spend the money on these "power adders" when you would go from 120whp to 122whp? If you ask me, its a waste of money (unless you like the different noise and are willing to pay for it). To keep this post on topic, here is what I recommend for modifications if you have $1500-$2000 to spend: Suspension Techniques Sway Bars - $250 Lowering Springs - $125-$200 New Struts - $250-$600 Inexpensive 17" wheels with nice performance low profile tires - $800-$1200 These modifications will make your car handle much, much better. Next to the 3sgte, the sway bars made the most difference in upgraded performance than any other part that I bought. The other nice thing about sway bars is that they will make your stock springs feel much stiffer in the corners due to decreased body roll.
