There are so many options out there for improving the power delivery and acceleration without going to headers or tuning.

Crawford Powerblocks, final drive ratio, lighter wheels and lighter drive shaft to name a few that come to mind. All these still leave the door open to going further with headers, custom tune, E85 flex fuel setup.

I would note each down and do some research into the pro's and cons. There are no free meals. Every mod will have trade off / con's. Final drive will hit fuel economy. headers can't really be installed without a custom tune and will also increase exhaust noise. Are you looking for a daily driver that feels awesome or something that looks awesome and feels crap to drive ie harsh and noisy?
