Without tearing up the engine:

Intake
Exhaust
Pulleys

Why does Sea World have a seafood restaurant? I'm halfway through my fishburger and I realize, Oh my God....I could be eating a slow learner

wasting your time

Dude just to save you the trouble. Your wasting your time with that 2.2 even on a 50 shot of nitrous it will only run 15.6 which is something to laugh at cause stock you have your self a 17 sec car. so with anything less than forced induction your just wasting your money bud.

In all Honesty, Im just looking to give my cav a little more power...(nothing major) and a little sound. Any ideas on what I can do without doing a conversion? Cold air intakes things like that?

If you're just wanting a little power, and better sound, I suggest you do a cold air/exhaust combo. Both improve power, and both help the sound of your engine.:smoka:
