If you have a header and full exhaust maybe think about upgrading your cat. I installed a catco cat on my car and it made a huge difference. If you have an intake already you can throw in a cam. An intake will let more air into the engine, an exhaust will let more air out. A cam will open your valves more allowing that air to actually enter the cumbustion chamber. While you are installing a cam throw on a cam gear and some underdrive pulleys. Then upgrade the fuel pressure regulator to allow more fuel to mix with the extra air and you have more power. Then upgrade the ignition to allow the new mixture to be burned efficiently.
