Welcome to DF! We would never tell you to do such a thing, but there really isn't a whole lot out there for the Avenger and for a verynoticeable difference your looking at a good bit of $$$ to get it.

Welcome Kirby.
I posted a resource listing for Avenger's at the top of this forum. It has "go fast" and "for looks" goodies. https://dodgeforum.com/m_479686/tm.htm
There's really not a whole lot you can do to make our cars faster (either motor) without forced induction.
You can add an intake and catback exhaust to help the motor breathe better and that will give some noticable, "butt dyno" increase, but it will wear out even faster than having a turbo, lol.
Btw, a stock V6 Mustang is said to have about the same HP as our V6 models (a little more actually).
The I4 Avenger is quicker, but both cars (V6 and I4) are 17 second cars.
