best place to start is to get your engine flowing better in and out, so a basic CAI and Exhaust system is always a good place to start, if you got the money get headers too.....

After that go with P&P upper and lower manifolds and a 62 mm TB.

The bucks keep getting bigger

Save the money up and do the heads with them, cheaper in the long run, Also if you want to stay NA get the heads milled, Increased compression really helps low end torque

To save the wallet a little....you can try the RSM Tranny mount, it keeps your motor/tranny in place better so you don't lose torque through motor movement at the launch and during shifts.

for 8000 you could have added a great s/c, some new headers, a good exhaust and that would take you way up there in power and torque, and you would have one fast car.... if you have any arguments with me then talk to springs fastest alero.... he knows what im talking about :thumbsup:

hehe, yeah.... About how much HP do you have after all that stuff you put on, minus the supercharger. I'm thinking it's never gonna be as fast as a v8, so why bother, right? Oh, btw. I will be adding a functional hood scoop in the next month. How much HP u think that will add?

if he's lookin for acceleration, WAI would be a better choice than CAI. but both are obviously better than the stock airbox.
