Bolt-ons quickly add up in price and essentially give you jackshit for horsepower gains. If you can save up around 2000-2500 you can do a decent custom turbo set-up.

save about $3,000 and take some grammar / spelling lessons, then re-write.

$500 AN-R, or Prospeed header is something that you can bolt up yourself and get tuned for a good 20 hp up top. You can expect high 18X hp tuned. You could spend $80 on a Portflow or DPR inner spring upgrade and go with some $500 used Crower stage 2's and be in the high 19X Hp range tuned.

It just depend on what you want to do I suppose. Of course if you got a early 90's model Mustang and put 6# boost on that it would kick a prelude's *** in drag. It is all relative.
