underdrive pully... switch SOHC exhaust to DOHC exhaust, PCM, and screw the K and N intake and get an Iceman intake

What do you mean by switch the SOHCexhaust to DOHC exhaust? Do you mean changingthe manifold or something else?

he means

change the mufflers
but don't since you already have a magna flow
you would have gotten the same power output with the DOHC muffler as the magna flow

so just stick with your magna flow

and is your K&N intake the 3.0L or one of the eBay ones that sits above the exhaust manifold?


you can also go to a junkyard and take the throttle body off of an automatic neon
the automatic neon's throttle body is 52mm compared to your mtx throttle body that is 49mm

Only the exhaust helped you power wise. Look for a real CAI or make your own 3.0L CAI, a UDP, an ATX TB to get you started. From there you will have to look at a header, post/polish the head, cams and so on.
