Aren't you guys forgetting something????

The biggest hp adder is the famous "turbonator".

I hear stickers, emblems and badges add about 10 hp to your ride

Just curious to see what you can get done and what gains you get.

Thanks
Is there a $ limit? What rwhp goals are you looking for? If staying N/A, which looks like the path you're taking, $ vs. hp is a losing battle. Many here have spent alot of $, and none (that I've found) have cracked the 300 rwhp mark. If no money limit, I'd go UTEC/headers/exhaust/spacer/pulleys/intake/test pipes. Do your research, there are plenty of threads here that will answer most of your questions.

From what I found by searching around this site is that NA is simply not making the power i expected. I found this one thread where this one cat was claiming to make big numbers, but members were questioning him. Depending on how much power you are looking to make, boost looks like the best route. Good Luck!

The one member Richie, I think his name is, hit the 300whp mark. Rickdogg was close, as was Alberto. Not sure what kind of tuning system they were running at the time.
