I dont get why everyone is always asking what can i do to get the most horsepower from this and that mod that ad up to like 2k or 3k.

Buy FI. If you dont want to spend $5k for a new one, buy one used. I just saw one for $2.5k, its going to blow away any mod's you want to do for the same price.

How can you beat $2.5k for a good 80 HP at the wheels.

Am i missing something here. Why cant people figure out FI is the way to go. If its to much save up intill its not.
and why cant you understand that not everyone WANTS to boost their car?

And unfortunately being 16, working two jobs to make a $400 monthly payment on my car, and barely having enough money to mod it (I've already spent around $3-4000 in 6 months) I'm doing the best I can .
Priorities, man priorities. Don't blow all you money on the car. Stock, its more than enough car, you need 2 jobs just to own it and insure it, and now you'll need a third to tune it.

it's not the way to go, it's the way you wanna go or anyone else wanting quick & inexpensive power......don't always assume that it's the money, some people have no need or care to go FI.....I know me personally I enjoy the balance of the car more than the speed of it....besides, I don't race, street race, or brag that mine is bigger, so to some of us there isn't a need for FI....nothing wrong with some strong NA power

^^^ While I do agree, I for one am of the mind to get a SC in the future. I would love nothing more than to be over 300hp and still be street legal!!!!
