Well, looks like there isn't much for my car. I guess I could add about 15+ stickers that should be good for about 200fwhp. <img src=/images/forums/snitz/eek.gif width=15 height=15 border=0> Errr, I think I am just gonna cut a hole in the floorboard to add some foot power. Seems like that'll be about as much as I get. Thanks for the responses. <img src=/images/forums/snitz/thumbup.gif width=25 height=18 border=0>

You could do one of those nast ass PVC intakes since you don't care about looks or for a little more money you could build one that looks nice like this...

Thanks for the link. That looks pretty intresting. I may do it a little down the road.
Does the cone filter really do much for these cars? I know on some cars changing the filter can add a few hp and some it will do nothing.

it wont really add any hp at all maybe 1 or 2 if your lucky and have it behind the battery but it WILL give you some throttle response and a cool noise<img src=/images/forums/snitz/laugh.gif width=15 height=31 border=0>
i think its a pretty good first mod for under $30<img src=/images/forums/snitz/thumbup.gif width=25 height=18 border=0> and when your ready, do up auto's link because thats the real deal<img src=/images/forums/snitz/wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0>
