97 SL2 performance question

Jan 08, 2006 0 Replies

Hello all. I got my 97 saturn sl2 about this time last year, and have been wanting to milk some more power out of it. My problem is, I'm a poor college student, so it has to be on a budget. So my question is this: What is the best way to get the best performance boost for my buck?



Here's what I've done so far:



Custom intake system: clamped a cone filter directly onto the throttle body



Custom exhaust: This is a do it yourself at AutoZone hack job. I cut the pipe after the cat and fitted the pipe diameter to



2.25'', threw on a glass pack, and side-piped it (sorry no pic with me).

Better Tires: Yokohama 205x60xR15



The other thing I've heard about doing is placing a resistor between the two contacts of the IAT sensor, but have always considered it chump change. Am I wrong?
