Money = Horsepower. Engine swap, forced induction, nitro, etc. They'll all cost you a pretty penny though.

Im not flaming you, but check the other topics out. You are most likely the 1000th person to ask this. Thats probably why XCM828 gave you a small, broad answer. Welcome to HCF!

a few mods you could do to your engine if you havnt already done so could be a air filter, full exhaust and maybe some new extractors..

those are just about everyones stating mods however it wont make ur car to much faster or give the hp like hes asking, good to let him know where to start tho.

try stuff like milling your valve head like i was told,changed out ur ecu,or maybe port n polish,,just some ideads

ur not really gonna get much without shellin money out..turbo,super, nitrous(tho its bad for the motor),swap,


things like air intakes and exhaust only really start to work after blowers and such are put in and more serious work is done
