There are no inexpensive big power gains. If you want power, you have to pay for it. The hurricane, tornado, turbonator, etc; are all gimmicks and you'll just blow your $. Ace is right, for $500 or under; nitrous is the only way to go.

Re: best way to gain alot of horsepower?

How about you buy a car like yours that was already modified, then crashed without ruining the engine (insurance auctions if they have them where you live) then swap the parts over yourself... somewhat cheap but a lot of work.
What I plan to do in my car is build my own turbo system. Buy the book by corky bell "Maximum Boost" and memorize it, then get junkyard parts and build your own turbo system... it's an awful lot of work to do it properly but much cheaper than buying a new aftermarket turbo kit. I heard of a technician at an Acura dealer here who built his own turbo setup but keep in mind you have to know at least basic auto mechanics and engine tuning to make it work reliably. Small oversights or poor planning and bad luck can wreck your engine very quickly.

PS lots of nitrous without proper setup will cost you a lot more than $500 for example broken driveshafts and transaxle, blown head gasket, broken connecting rods, piston/ring damage, if you just add a few hundred hp without any mods your car won't last very long

Re: best way to gain alot of horsepower?

Find a crx hf with no motor for a cpl hundred swap your motor into the crx. not hp gain but a lot faster. and before someone says "he said for his integra" i know im just offering suggestions to be faster. other than that a good i/h/e setup will cost more than 500 so id say slap a 100 shot on it and blow it up...maybe haha or save your money and put together a turbo set up like i am ...a super 60 turbo is great for the teg motor
