OK! this is what you do:
You know that having a carbon fiber hood is less weight on your car right? Well how about if you had no hood? Even less weight right?
Then get rid of your intake and let the throttle body suck as much air as possible. We have to let the butterfly fly.... Forget bout **** getting in your engine. Who gives a rat's *** huh? We're going the cheap way!
Gut your car all the way. Leave your Gauges, radio, speakers. You got to listen to something right? Gut your car all the way even the drives seat. Take a Lawn chair and duct tape the hell out of the chair to the car. As a seat belt use duct tape also.
Get rid of A/C, Power steering, even the altenator. Were just trying to make it Fast and Furious!! Get yellow stickers And bam! you are going to be doing a 10 second quarter mile! Badow!!!
Come on man, we live in the real world....

Uprgrade your fuel, advance your timing and switch to stand alone management computer. Also get some lightweight rims and some good gripping tires awell as some weight reduction.

LOL haha whoo yea right sonny. best you could do is strip the car to nothing just like they did to some poor fool on sports compact magazine a back while to a sentra i think it was .... that was crud.
Advance your timing all the way and start losing weight. These cars can be fast, but it is far from the cheapest race car you'll find. YOur gonna have to drop some cash, the trick is knowing where top spend it to get your moneys worth.
Best money I spent was a pair of Azenis for the front tires $115 for the pair
And a nitrous kit $600
For under a grand you can go 13s, I did
Then work from there.

yeah sell it and get a Type R

weight reduction, advance your timing, (both have already been mentioned) and if you really want, run an open header. Its loud as hell esp in VTEC not to mention illegal in (if caught
) but the last thing i can think of is take off your power steering belt. I only recomend the last thing if you have a good set of tire with stiff sidewalls. Parking lot speeds are hard but managable but once you get above 5-10mph you should be fine.

dude its not possible to add POWER w/o buying something, yeah maybe removing A/C and power steering and advancing the timing and octane of the fuel but come on now...seriously...how much would all that possible give you? not enough to make a difference...YOU NEED TO BUY STUFF TO GO FASTER...simple as that
K&N filter would be a good cheap mod, along with DIY intake using stock air cleaner box, in addition to 18 or so degrees BTDC timing and fresh spark plugs. Synthetic oil can add 1-2hp, too. All in all these things may net you 5hp, but doubt that they could give you 10, since these ponies are more synergistic than additive. Really, some things may just help you find lost power from stock ratings.

Loosen 3 bolts on distributor and move toward firewall

Also, spend $50 for an inductive timing light to do the job right. You'll need to jump your service connector inside passenger footwell w/ a half a paperclip while moving the distributor. You should have all accessories off and let the car idle 15 minutes first, though. You'll need a 12mm box end wrench and socket to move the bolts and a marker to note the new setting on the distributor and bracket.
dude if you dont know what your doing dont play with your timing....please...it could royally **** your car up and you'll idle like **** so unless you 100% know what your doing, dont
got to agree with everyone else, you gotta spend some $$$ to get some results. it comes down to more money=more HP, how much you want and how much are you willing to spend?
