modify the intake, install boost valve, and cut off the muffler. thats about as much free power your going to get. then ur going to need tuning

spend the money and get ppe hot=2 or efi live. or look on your local craigslist. i know in my area there are a few programmers for sale that are about $100 cheaper than buying new.

Thanks, appreciate it, so far I have the muffler off, and Ive been checking out the EFI live. Lookin for a way to modify my intake and just wondering if i should spend the money on an aftermarket one.

as stated only do the front. doing the side allows water and snow in there.
