prity much turbo or super are your only options unless you want to get into the little things like cams and spark plug wires and shocks and struts are a must, if you want to do anything to make your self go faster litten the car there are a tone of things you can take out and still look stock exp. spare tire shocks and coils,hood door panles, back seats, dash. replace the hood with cf hood the doors done in fiber glass and the dash. to the front seats can be replaced with sport seats.

the options are endless

Preludes don't lose over 30% from the crank to the wheels

Anyways, to the original poster, what motor are you running?

Get your bottom end done..
Forged High Compression pistons, rods.

Once you get that done see where you are at and go from there.
And get a hondata, VAFCs suck ***.

from the title of your thread id say you are going the N/A route. Might i suggest moving on to the head. Also, i hope you got one hell of a header, no DC nonsense up in the thin clear air of 200whp.

Ive learned the hard way on how to properly spend my money on the car... first before you do much with performance.. fix anything that may need fixing.. I blew all my money on making the car look good and go faster, but then i ran into random problems that really put me into dept..

But if nothings wrong or ur not worried about it, id go with cams, performance pulleys, short shifter, performance clutch.... intake manifold... Not gonna be cheap, but then again, nothing is these days

thanks man, i need a good laugh. IMO, badass header, IM, TB. that'll get you damn close. Then some headwork (cams + valvetrane) and you blow it away. Or you could always just spray it.

Pullies?? Are you kidding me?? That's a nice waste of more than $100.

The rest are good suggestions.

Right now I am at 179whp with intake, exhaust, and Hondata IM gasket. I'm hoping a header and some tuning will get me VERY close to 200whp.

No disrespect intended, but Pullies are a great, cheap, and easy way to free up some rotating mass. You will notice improved throttle response with them. I mean seriously, if all your doing is bolt ons, they make sense. Why do you think the rustangers have been using them for years?

pullies are more for feel than power. its the same concept as the lightened flywheel. it'll make the car more fun to drive (responsive), but don't expect changes on the dyno or in the 1/4.

200 whp:

i,h,e, hf cat, cams, tuning should be enough. you can get close without the cams but the cams will def put you over the top if you have the right header and exhaust system and your tuner knows what he's doing.

type S pistons are good, but kidn of a pita to install vs. the stuff i already mentioned.
