nothing.... put that 300 toward your turbo kit.
well you can buy some n2o with that or buy a exhaust.

Save that $300 towards a Stage 1 turbo kit. Best bang for the buck.

Otherwise, buy a CAI and a UDP.

Iceman Cold air intake, used GS-T muffler, and AFX UDP. Get all 3 easily for around $300. Check ebay and dsmtrader.

Get cams!!! If you can score some cams for 300 new or used do it.

Or save up for the turbo kit like everyone else said.

Everything else you can do is just small hp gains...no worth the money.

buy some stickers for you car, some winshield squirter lights, a tip for your exhaust that lights up, and a more stickers. cant go wrong with these, and the hp gains are incredible emoji

exhuast system- might cost around 100 or more
CAI- cost probably like 100 maybe more depends how name brand you wanna go
Spark plugs wires- 50-100 but depends on how old you stock ones are, the stock ones are pretty shitty I'll tell you that. around 50k change em.

that should get you a WHOOPING 5 HP bwahaha. but yeh best bang for your buck get a turbo kit or maybe NOS I guess.

well if you do decide to go turbo you won't need that CAI intake, I say just buy some cheap ass autozone cone filter or drill holes in your airbox. Then use that money to get an AFX pulley.
