Have the ECU flashed. That should get you another 50hp.

Get Jeremy from OE Tuning to flash your computer. You will love it. Also get filters and delete the charcoal filters.. It will all cost you around $1100, but its well worth it. Then if you want to make the car alittle louder delete the secondary cats with an xpipe and delete the resonator with straight pipes. You will love it

I just spent $100 to delete the resonator and install straight pipes. I love the sound. No drone, and cold start is like a minor eruption. It's so cheap you can always reinstall the resonator if you don't like it. No HP pickup but much cheaper than buying a cat back system.

Just include the image address as part of your signature (not as an avatar). Bookend the image web address with [IMG] and [/IMG]. It's easiest if you have the image stored on a hosting site like Smugmug or such. This way you can post a larger image than what is allowed as an avatar.

Ecu tune would be the best starting point there are a few different timers that work well do your homework, don't just buy cause of what a few members accomplished with tunes. There are many different factors that go into getting results
