How can I add Some HP???, Easy ways to add horse power? Options

Hello Everyone,

First off I would just like to say thankyou for everyone who posts on this web site, I have found out so many different things just by reading other posts. Again this is a great site, thankyou all.

Anyway,
I own a '96 Celica GT with a 5s-fe. I currently have:
NGK Plugs
Catback exhaust 2.25" pipeing
CAI

My car has 148,000 miles on it and I was just wondering how I can get some more horse power out of it without swapping and without throwing in a turbo (seems like alot of miles to turbo, prolly a waste...). At this point I am kind of out of ideas. I was thinking of putting an MSD ignition box in, however I was reading on here that I will see little to nothing by doing so. I also thought about adding one of those "racing chips". Again, I read on this site that these are crap.

I am pretty much learning as I go. Every performance upgrade to my car I have performed (except exhaust) so I am not afraid to get my hands dirty. Any thoughts or ideas will be highly appreciated...

I bet if you get on a dyno you won't have more than 120 at the wheels.
