[QUOTE="phantom240, post: 1709168, member: 562504"] here's my 2 cents on the whole deal. Lets explore what makes the car run before jumping into change this and that. It starts with the intake. Your intake is ghettofied and probably does more harm than good. Get an AEM cold air intake and the bypass valve so you dont stand the chance of hydrolocking your motor if the filter gets submerged or excessively wet. Now that the car can inhale some air, it has to get fuel, fire and compression to operate. The best additive to fuel is seafoam, also run a can through the brake booster's vacuum line so it cleans the inside of the intake and other pieces.. trust me, ive used it and seen its wonder.

If you want to go the extra mile, go ahead and install a msd blaster coil to make sure your getting clean spark. Now that the engine is running, its exhaust has to leave the motor. Headers do wonders, DC sports and HotShot are the best in the business for the price. Catco and Random make high flow cats that are legal, or you can run a resonator in its place if you dont have emissions laws. As far as leaving from the cat, i would recommend piping NO BIGGER THAN 2.5" and dont use a cannon style muffler, theyre rice and ghey. magnaflow makes good mufflers if you want a shop to do it, or buy a good catback.
