What can i do to improve my 0-60 time? N how can i increase my torque?
one word. TURBO
All other toys like Cold air intake is just a fun thing. You want to get serious increase in your HP and torque? get a turbo, and upgrade your internal engine parts, you'll be flying like crazy. Plus you'll be doing 12s or 13s on the 1/4 track
Thats my project for next 2 years or so.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Do you NOT see that he has a MSP?
Anyway, upgrade your turbo ... IC, exhaust etc.
oops, didnt nottice that he has msp. Well anyways, get bigger turbo and piping. Upgrade ur internals, along with a ECU swap, also, might wanna do a fuel system swap unless urs is upgraded already. Umm, NoS? Direct injection system would be good too, only in that case u definetly need to upgrade all internals.

Ok - located in your user cp ...
Go to "user options" ...
Make sure "yes" is filled for all fields under "Thread view options"
Then under "other options"
You should change your avatar (hence us thinking you had a Orange MSP)
In order to put your own images or mods or misc. typing to "edit profile" and in the signature field ... type away ...
So in regards to your original question ... Dis was right ...

For starters... I would go with a CAI or a Short Ram Intake ... exhaust is a big plus, headers etc. If you don’t want to go the NA route then go FI ... good way to go as long as you got the money for it, keep in mind it also takes more maintenance and tuning to go FI.
