Default Help me upgrade!

OK, I'm gettin the itch to do some modifications....unfortunately, my wife does not share my enthusiasm. Since I don't want to be sleeping in the backyard for the rest of the year, I was wondering if you guys (and gals) could help me come up with a cost effective plan. What would be the cheapest way to get to 450-500 horsepower. I have no other mods other than those listed in my signature.

Any help and suggestions are more than appreciated!

Well try N2O 100-150 shot should get you pretty close, and best thing until you hit the button, it drives just like it did before you installed it, and probably the best part is it's alot cheaper than the procharger
BTW I'm in same boat you are with regard to wife not liking modding the car

cheap and 500 hp dont go hand in hand(please see post in sig)

400 hp can be had reletivly cheap, but as said before alittle shot of the funny stiff will probibly be enough to make you happy
