Hey man, all of these inexpensive mods will get you to possibly 160...at the flywheel! Remember our cars are rated 135 at the flywheel....and as cars live longer their power decreases. I remember seeing a 80k mile 96 celica gt that was only pushin 93.7 hp at the wheels bar stock...he added exhaust, intake, plugs and wires and still only got it to 97.

Little things don't add horsepower. If you got some other things to not lose so much horsepower throughout the drivetrain...ie lightenend flywheel then you should talk camshaft regrinds, pistons, all that good stuff if you want tot ake advantage of that engine. Thats without force induction or nitrous.
