If you want every last horsepower for little money get...

-ETS LP2, Perrin Filter < both proven to make the most whp's

-Full 3 inch catless turboback buschur, ets, ams, just as long as it's straight as possible and a full 3 inch

-manual boost controller or aem tru boost which is a gauge and controller I have it and it works flawlessly otherwise you have to by a gauge and a mbc
-buschur ported coated exhaust manifold cheap ( $195) and proven to make power
-02 dump optional but another cheap power mod

those mods and a tune will cure your power craving for atleast a little while.

I say the lower pipe is one of the best bang for the buck mods, besides a boost controller or tune.

Thanks!

Start with E-85. I got a 255 fuel pump $80, PTE 880 Injectors $265, and a dyno tune $250, and got 79WHP. I went from 297 to 376 off of E-85. That is the best bang for your buck!

Car had a Forge Boost Controller, and a Buschur Turbo Back Exhaust when I bought it.

Other good areas to start in order:
Boost Controller
Turbo Back Exhaust with cat delete
Injen IC Pipes w/ intake
Turbo XS Intercooler
Or just bolt on a FP red, do the injectors & Fuel pump... That's Great bang for your buck!

I could go on and on but I don't know your budget.
