n2o or turbo... its a SOHC.. so it wont be that fast... when you say you did exhaust all i can only assume you mean you just put a muffler on it.. DOHC swap is the best way to make it faster tht is why you keep hearing it. You wont make a N/A SOHC fast.. Just my 2 centsSometimes I Like To Pretend My Car Is Fast..

ok so a N20 system would be best i just put a new muffler it had the orignal and the car has 149000. what is a good site to see some n2o system and i was looking at a body kit and wanted to know if anyone has used it or heard anything about its made by Extreme Dimensions its the Bomber Body Kit i found it for $800 online is it any good

Don't do it. Your car + n20 = death. Get a junkyard dohc, rebuild it ....right.....and then swap it in. ONce you have done that you will be ready to hit performance and will have way fewer problems cause you know what is going on already with the engine. I would really suggest spending the 3 months to go through that process and then get the n20 as a quick, easy way to horsepower.[quote author="shortbus"]Stage 2 is great. Its covered by warranty, better fuel economy, the eaton screams louder so deer wont jump onto the road, it makes girls get wet, and the emissions produced will not kill songbirds or melt glaciers.[/quote]<br />[quote author="retardpartol"]...who is sober and noton any kind of intoxication whether is be ibuprophin[/quote]<br />LSJ phun

Oh yeah, HP that is reliable and you won't be handing out $1200 for a rebuild to someone who doesn't care about your car or your life..[quote author="shortbus"]Stage 2 is great.

Originally posted by arsenal1499i just want it a little bit quicker i wanted to eventually use it for drifting so i wanted it a little faster so N2O is not that important. what about that body kit anyone use it or know how good
you've got one of the worst performing combinations ever in a saturn, don't waste your money unless you take the above advice for a twin cam swap

[quote="arsenal1499"]ok so then i probably wont drift then cause i dont want to sell the car but what are some other stuff that i can do to give it more HP like better exhaust. and do any of you know about the body kit are you aloud to post ]
bolt-ons are going to marginally increase efficiency and in turn power, but nothing stellar and you'll still be slower than a stock DOHC swap would be for around the same amount of money.
your best bet for a body kit is ebay or google, search search search. if you must start a thread about it, do it in the appropriate section.
