I love the way my celi looks but i'm a bit disappointed in the 5sfe's acceleration its just not as aggresive as its body style. I'm not looking for a drag strip car and i dont have the need to race people i just wanna pull off a stop light a lil faster what can i do to get a stock 5sfe to pull a bit better off the line, could care less about top end if you see me doing over 70 its rare. i know i can boost it read alot on bolt on chargers, but i really didnt want to go $2000+ what can i do on a $500-$1000 budget to get a lil more pull

guys, with a 500 bucks youll only gain close to 10 hp max 25 with good cams bringing the price to close 1000. period.

intake, cams, exhaust, maybe a new header. the cams may set you back a couple 400 usd.

its a frequent asked question. you want power, you need money. those are estimates.

7a engine. not worth to do much, except turbo. or you wont feel the power.

gt engine, its ok, some mods may help, but again, not worth for a couple hp.

Swap is the way to go.
