Need some more Performance!!!
I'm just wondering what else i could do to get some more juice outta my car, it's a stock V6 1.8L 5 speed, i have a cold air intake, new HKS sparks and wires, and a header ordered on the way, what else can i do to improve HP, without breaking the bank?

Lightweight flywheel (pretty cheap for results it gives you), better clutch, klde engine wont break your bank, you can get em anywhere around 300 - 500 local junk yards. um... light weight pulley, delete ac, synthetic oil Headers will mkake a bit of a diff but are a pain in the asre to install but well they are worth it.

I actually may be taking the dive this summer and trying the ESC Electric Supercharger by Thomas Knight. There's so much debate about it, some people saying that it could work, thomas knight writing about it himself here, and others saying it's a POS. If i get it, hopefully I'll be able to clear up this damn debate once and for all.
95' MX-3 RS, front and rear stabilizer bars, B&M short shifter, homemade ground kit, all power options just installed, passport 8500 X50 radar detector (+15HP, -8mpg, +20mi/hr top end on the highway)
You could get some track lite 2.0 rims 15x6.5 are like 10.0 lbs each but for $232 kinda pricey. I am ordering them one at a time..I suck lol..anywho, if you can reduce your rotational mass, you will notice improvement in your 0-60 and 60 ft. and all that great junk.
1993 MX-3 GS-SE -> Leather Interior, HEI Mod, Blaster 2 coil, NGK spark wires, Cold Air Intake, Underbody kit, Strut bar, Iridium plugs, Phoenix Gold amp 400w, Bazooka 12" sub-> 62,000 miles and still going ? Amazing lol..
