ok, i have been thinking hard about this....and here is what i have found..

these numbers are from Import tuners september issue in power pages..

Stock                                             129.7 hp 144.9 tg
Unorthodox Racing ultra SS pully set    138.1 hp 150.9 tg
Injen Cold air intake                          143.2 hp 154.3 tq
5Zigen Fireball Catback                      146.8 hp 158.0 tq

total hp increase is 17.1 and total tq increase is 13.1

Cost:

Pully set- 479   i can get for                     410
Intake     390   i can get for                     288
exhaust   650   i can get mine(not fireball)  450
total      1519                                       1148  

add 330 for header and around 10 hp increasetotal hp increaseis 27 for $1478

Import Tuner:

every $90 spent gain 1 hp

me:

every $55 spent gain 1 hp

i cant find a high flow cat so that is not on the list....

Possibly a 50 shot of N2O supplied by NX for around 600
total          2078
hp inc.       77 from stock.... thats 206 total hp...

then a JWT ecu so 2578 for about 75 hp...

Turbo kit 4000-6000 for kit and supporting mods for about the same hp increase.....

this is just me brain storming....so take it as you will!!!!
