THE C350
Remove any extra weight such as spare tire, seats, people and go to the gym.

That is the best way to make your car faster sadly. Very few bolt on parts were ever made for the m271 and none are really available anymore.

Take a few minutes and search on here this question has been asked so many times.

Drive down hills only. Add an Acme Rocket to your rear deck, ignite as needed.

Aftermarket supercharger, turbo, or swap in a C55.

Are there really no ecu tuning options that will at least give Stuart a little bump? Oy.

Nope. Pound out the sides and drive without a hood. Problem solved.

Not many mods us 230 owners can do, do healthy things for your car, air filters, fuel filter, sea foam the crap out of it a few times, smaller s/c pulley (not cheap), exhaust system, headers, could do a free flow air setup but its questionable if it would even help or just suck hot air, I don't think they make performance chips that arnt money scams (if you find one that's not a scam LMK) No mods are cheap. Good luck
