Are there any other modifications that we can do to our cars other than the IAT that will make the performance better... BTW... I'm talking about rather "cheap" mods because my car has a big weight reduction from not having money in my wallet!:D Thanks for your advice.

:EDIT:

Aparently I'm an ass for saying what mods you can do to a Probe. Sorry....

As far as free.... weight reduction. Cheap....well you can make your own CAI, search for that one. After that im not sure, our cars dont really have the aftermarket support that they need, well they do but its not cheap.:darin:

intake, headers, exhaust, chip, UDP, porting, cams, bore t-body, AFC, mid-pipe, weight reductuion, clutch, lighter flywheel, remove AC, FPR, fuel pump.....

Not to nitpick, but every chip that ive seen for our cars has shown a loss in HP.

Or you can be adventurous like some of us & do your own port & polishing & such on intake components...... and avoid denial if you have no talent with rotary tools - you don't want to screw anything up beyond repair.... ;-)

He did not say free. I consider EVERYTHING I put to be cheap. Supercharger, turbo, and stuff like that I consider NOT to be cheap. He did not specify anything as price limit or anything. So why don't YOU go read the post

I posted every mod I could think of off the top of my head. He can do what he wants with the list I wrote.... buy it all, ignore me, whatever.

Every chip? What all have you seen? the one SCC or whoever did on the Probe from Jet that lost power? Everyone knows Jet sucks.

PRM's timing chip did 10whp on the dyno in an MX-3 GS. A chip can advance timing, change fuel mapping, advance VRIS points, or all of the above. If those are changed you WILL get power. It's been proven many-o-times. ;)

weight removal is the cheapest :)

Porting intake and Exhaust manifold, maybe do the heads, is not very expensive. Also a windage tray, gap and index spark plugs and put a switch on the A/C compresser so you can keep it off when wanted.
