$1000 for HP...

I have 1000 +/- CDN so thats like 12 bucks us... I am looking to get the most hp/tq out og my money. Right now my car is stock and I will be doing the mods in the near future(month or two). So what products would give me the best results other than N2O.

thanks

HP header + cai ~$1000CDN

Then an exhaust will give you 8-15HP altogether, I think

For $12, sheesh, the only thing you can buy is some Type R stickers and hope for the best. Actually, you really can't buy s.hit for $12.

The Type R sticker easily constitutes an equivalent of a turbo! 50HP!!! Power to the people!!

dc header, injen cai, and dc sports tcs exhaust.......or save a few dollars w/ the intake and just drop in a k&n filter......that way you wont loose any low end torque, and spend the extra money on maybe some underdive pullies

Best bet is an AEM CAI and a catback exhaust.

Yo, SpatSi...

I also live in canada...

For $1000 you can't get a good cat-back and headers [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]

but...if you want to go the fun route, you could get some anti-sway bars, some springs, and work on the lowering situation.

it really helps in corners, and makes it a lot more fun to drive [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

also turns more heads...

but anyways, rob from tornactive can hook you up for some good deals, so give him a shout! (www.tornactive.com)

good luck!

Ah said $1000 for header and CAI, cat is sepearte, hahaha, you should read what I was talking abooot. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

Lowering and bars aren't as good as lowering and KONI's, I have KONI's I love KONI's.

But not for $1000 only tho.
