IMO, save a teensy bit longer, and get good quality mods. Not this ghetto shit.

id agree with kbslacker. These cheap mods you want wont give you much in the way of performance at all. Maybe a horse here or there.

For once-in-a-while uses, you can try going with an open intake. Just take out the factory airbox. But it's not recommended for everyday driving. Also try taking out the back seat to reduce weight.

Here is a better idea. Buy some clear taillights, and lots of stickers. That will help out alot. :right:

by far the best mod out there.... darkwing, how much hp does that add?

You could also remove your powersteering and AC belts.. They say it makes a difference but I dont really think it makes that much.. Maybe 1 or 2hp. Or just remove powersteering and AC components all together and save yourself about 30-40lbs or so, get rid of all the sounds proofing and carpet and stereo and what ever else that isnt a must and drop about 100+ pounds..(I wouldnt recommend any of it unless your just desperate for a little more speed..)
