^ thats turbo, i thought u didnt want turbo.
HP does not come cheap. U may think that you spend less on a CAI + headers + catback exhaust (keeping it NA), but the HP gained/buck ratio will never compare to a turbo. Not to mention that there is a ceiling (15HP MAX maybe?) of how much HP u can gain if you keep it NA.
With a turbo, you're talking about a 20HP MIN gain, otherwise it's not even worth doing. Once you have that turbo, the sky's the limit. Well actually, your engine and transmission
U decide.

I bought one of those resistors for $.01 to get my ebay rating up!
Topher pretty much said everything you can do to get HP out of an n/a. You could also try and increase displacement, but that starts getting into the area of things you can't do yourself. As far as things that are easy to install yourself, go with intake, header, exhaust, pulleys, cam gears and cam shafts. Or, I say you sell your car and get a MSP. Well worth it.
That, and spray some Simple Green in your engine and hose it off.
