why waste money on a header($400) catback exhaust($400) and a nice clutch for about ($500 with installation) that is 1300 that could buy a turbo kit and have someone install it for more....

also, you're stock compression ratio is 10.5:1.. u could boost with stock pistons, but it prolly couldnt take more than 8psi. (if u do that, i recommend a thicker head gasket to ensure the blocks safety on stock pistons) if u want more power you'd build the engine and get lower compression pistons.
