Power Gain?

Hey everyone. I have an EX with Injen CAI and Custom piping exhaust. I am looking for a good performance mod to get so that I notice something. I know now the venom chip sucks *** from what I have heard so I need a new one. Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks

this question has been asked so many times. the only way your going to get GAINS is nitrous or a turbo. our cars are SLOW. if you want speed why did you buy a vic. get a rsx-s or a wrx.

ok
anyways, the HP header w/high flow cat is suppose to produce some power...and some is not a lot just to let ya know...
nothing really can produce much power that is very noticeable
all you can really do is finish the I/H/E combo, and try getting some cams or pulleys
or just save up for turbo, maybe NOS if your interested
thats really about it, unless you got the money for a swap

instead of saying our cars are slow and we need a trubo and all i'll awnser your question. if you want to feel some HP gains buy an exhaust, header, intake, and pulleys. then when thats done buy NOS.

everyone gets all pissed when someone asks an old question but other places on here its encouraged to post a pic of a girl you find attractive or to guess what someones avatar means. Its just another opportunity to get your post count up if you answer old questions or even complain so i don't know why i am even writing this. Put me down for another post Derrick thanks.

I don't like nos. Where's the pride in knowing the only way you're gonna beat the next guy is by using a cheater bottle? I think real racing is mods only. I won't be using the bottle.
