Well, the obvious choice would be to go turbo my friend. but yea, if you're looking to spend a little less money, get a underdrive pulley, maybe a full cold air intake, and a little N20 never hurt anyone...lol.

Turbo, NOS, Engine Swap, or Stroker Kit are the only real ways to make power. Next to that I'd say some real headwork which could give you a solid 25+ ponies. Cams, porting, gears and compression

a wing and stickers, a lot of stickers, they add 50 hp each, and the wing adds 100!!!

then colored blinky lights, they make you uber-fast!

screw it all just do a 2.2 swap and add a S20g turbo at the same time....that would solve most people's need temporarily

TEMPORARILY being the key word? I plan on going FTY high comp 2.0 and then when I get bored with that I'll slap a HRC kit on there, possibly 8 or so psi so I don't blow myself up.
