stock e55

What are the 1st things one would do to the car for more power. Not looking to go crazy or spend a fortune but want to know what I should do to get some quick power, if you could include the approx price for whatever you say would be great.

Thanks,
M

ASP Pulley and LET tune will run you about $1600-$1700 and will net you about 50hp and 80-100tq. VRP is about $2200 for the pulley/tune and Renntech is about $4500.

Then you will need to get cooling mods done, to handle the additional heat generated by the supercharger, which can be done for about $500-$2000.
