For me, I think the F23 is the worst engine. It is weak. I think the most you can squeeze out is N/A tuning. Even the F22B1 seems better imo. I know the F23 has pretty good response. There are no superchargers for F23. I would stick with N/A tuning.

If you have ULEV version which is F23A4, don't even bother looking for performance. But you can do the famous I/H/E. Maybe a few upgrades in the engine. I think that'll be good.

Absolutely, if you have F23A1 don't do any shitty upgrade, its not worth it, never mind performance - you will loose your low end....these cars are design to run with back pressure On.

so don't even think about removing your cat -
don't remove your stock air intake - you will loose your low end there too ... how ever you may gain little bitty high end, again you not going to notice that much of power.
