the next two that come to mind would be cat-back exhaust, and/or a lightweight crank pulley

loctite butterflies, BSR (although it can be a PITA), TB coolant bypass (some claim it helps, some disagree. takes 30 seconds to do unless you are missing both thumbs), spark plugs and wires, advance timing. Theres more but im too lazy.

don't waste your time on the tb coolant bypass. its a waste of time and effort.

as i said, some think it helps some dont. i did it when i loctited my butterflies just because i was there already. doubt there was a difference, but who knows.

also doug, knock sensor relocation. look for a write up, might be one on here. just need a few feet of wire.

nt2bd all of these especially the bsr could void the warranty seeing as it cannot be reversed, and tbcb please read into it more before deciding to do it, people who recommend doing it originally were boosted with 3-400hp spec's

advancing the timing the dealer has to do that, they have to use the computer to do it.

if you do the bsr yourself, are they really going to know? I honestly doubt theyre going to take apart the whole bottom end just to say that you voided warranty.

you would honestly be surprised at what dealerships will go through to put you out of warranty, i know i used to work for one.

if you had engine problems and they had to pull the oil pan for whatever reason, your done.

now as far as being able to tell like you would with a CAI no not the same thing.

i still don't recommend bsr in any case, but thats up for you to decide.

yea im not doin the bsr anyway. and if i get the timing advanced at a dealer i dont think it would matter bc i dont take my car to the dealer to get fixed. so the shop i take it to wouldnt kno about that.

also does anyone kno how much it will cost for that and wat the pros/cons are of it
