Don't go up the hill. It will increase your 1/4 mile time.

I think the OP has gotten some good ideas from this helpful thread. Get a blower for your mind, not the car.

And remember hills take up a lot of air space. Got to get rid of that air someplace or somehow. So now you got to pay somebody to haul that shit off and dump it somewhere unnoticed. There goes another grand. Remember a hill is just a hole in the air that you throw hundred dollar bills down.

For heavens sake, type_o ..... you got some of the troops all stirred up ....

I'd suggest you get a set of tires that will help the car do with what you want it to do. For general driving and a little fun on curvy roads, the ones that came with it are fine.

Then I would look into an aftermarket exhaust system .... at least a muffler (a muffler will not make to car go faster.... it will just sound like it does)....

There ya go ..... a tight budget, safe, stay within warranty, "go fast" formula.

They won't take the question seriously. Read the forums, they have countless threads on ways to "make your car go faster". Just use the search function.

Happy modding!

Ok, "O"! I'll take you serously... As someone already stated, better tires are good upgrade. If your funds are limited, I'd go with some nice all seasons, so you can get around when the snow comes!

The rating on your Apexi filter is 5.3hp, ( I wanted the same filter ) so that's a good start. An over pipe and headers are considerably less expensive than a catback exhaust, so those too may be a short path to your goal. Happy tuning and God speed!

faster is relative, if you are going 90 mph in 60 mph zone, you will be faster than most cars.
