WHAT ARE some good ways to get HP

hi i have a satunr sl2 with 116 k miles, i recently ordered a aem intake, what else would make good HP upgrades. They are selling performance chips on ebay for like 6 bucks, do they work?

those chips are worthless, they just srcew up your A/F ratio. intake is a good start, i would follow with exhaust mods and a bored throttle body.

Yes, intake and exhaust are the things to start with; make the car "breathe better" by following up with headers. The ebay chips are crap. They are cheapo resistors (and when i mean cheapo i mean 5 cents) that tell the computer there is a cooler temperature so they add fuel for more power. I bought one for $30 and only got it cuz you can actually adjust it inside the car so it isn't fooling the computer all the time, but still, I could have bought the simpsons season 5 (just came out on dvd). spswebpage.com is a good source for parts. they sell a bored out throttle body or you can bore yours out yourself if you want.

It really depends on how much your willing to spend.. cheap stuff.. like they said ubove:intake, exhaust, throttlebody, spark plugs, ignition coil, hot wires,then the more expensive stuff like: pistons, intake manifolds, porting and polishing, nitrous, turbos, cylinder heads with a 3 angle, cams and rollers, it can go on and on as long as the money's there

how do you bore one out? is there a online guide? i mean, i dont know much about cars (and being young, i havent much time to learn) but my family members know a ton about it, so im sure they could all help me do this if it adds HP.. about how much HP by the way? and is it worth the effort?

I only said it cuz i saw it in a post here a while back. I'm sure sierra can tell you a lot more than i can.

yep, how did you guess? ideally buy a $10,000 lathe(i want one....)

this is basicly what i did, but with weak power tools, even my crappy job has a nice little boost.
