a whole lot, compared to the longer gears of the hx. You should get the y8 Intake manifold, maybe get you a y8 head and put it on your block. new ecu and harness if you do the mini me. Your not gonna get much out of your hx. for right now, do the tranny. 300$ at the most. (get it from the classifieds.)

for $600 Im sure its been beating with more than a stick...if not the seller is on crack.

If it were me, for the money to power and potential ratio...I would have to say a DOHC swap like a b16 or b18.
