Only if you get turn up the boost and get tuned. If you just drop the compression without raising the boost level, you're losing power. Changing injectors doesn't do a thing unless you need the extra flow.

Chop Top that roof off and make a rag top convertible. or buy something thats not Korean.

remove the spare tire and take one lug nut off every wheel. you dont need off of them.

Then remove your intake tube and run open throttlebody. better flow anywase.

Do alot of burnouts to get rid of unneeded rubber. be sure to switch tires from front to rear and wipe all of it off teh rear bumper.

Also pull your front and rear bumper supports off. not needed.

Remove teh rear window glass and passanger seatbelts and air bad. you could also sell them to make some money to buy NOS. You should be good to go by then. Good luck!
