k20/24 swap or turbo will help.

First, get a better job
Second, save a bunch of money up ($15,000 is about right)
Third, research racing
Fourth, go to a racing school
Fifth --- if you still feel the need to mod your EX after all of those steps

Buy a K20z3 top end --- Buy a K24 bottom --- bore it over and add forged internals ---- add some cams, a GT35R turbo setup, Full Race manifold, AEM EMS, Clutch/FLY, Axles, mounts, suspension, slicks, cage, tuning, and run 10's all day after lots of seat time

Expect some down time, some mistakes, some mis-shifts --- maybe a blown motor, tranny problems, new slicks etc...

If you dont plan on racing in sanctioned events ---- save your money and buy a house --- youll thank yourself later noob

Oh and are you from CARSON because your location might be wrong
