Remove power steering and A/C.

Other than that, you have to pay to play.

That is a good idea, but it doesn't add horsepower.

It will make it faster, though. h:

steal your friend's turbo from his car, and trick him into installing it for you in your car while paying him by letting him wax your car, it just might work! if tom sawyer can do it why cant you?
