cheap power?

im looking to add more power to my car somehow, but hopefully cheaply and easily...i currently have on there:
-hooker shorty headers
-home made cool air intake
-exhaust cut out (3")
-flowmaster muffler

and a couple other things that are supposed to add power i think but they dont really help lol...anyone have any suggestions?

Re: cheap power?

well you would have gotten more power if you had put long tubes on your car.

Re: cheap power?

afpr? whats that? and what is the intake porting and how much does it cost? and i had orignally bought the long tubes but i was told that in order to fit them i would need to smash up the subframe so i kinda passed on that idea...plus its a daily driver and long tubes would be real low

Re: cheap power?

get rid of the subs and amp box, if its anythign like my old set up it weighs quite a bit and weighs you down, also consider some msd ignition, plus a good tune it can do wonders

Re: cheap power?

well ijust gave it a fresh tune up in the fall...got rid of the air box...new fuel pump and filter this spring...and i ahve been thinking of msd for a while now, but how expensive is that going to be and how hard is it?

also i probably wont do the subs box cuz this is my daily driver car
