Depends what mods you already have done... But yes, on a stock car, there are a lot of "free mods" that can be done

yes the 99-00si transmission is completely different and not compatable.

as far as free mods go. theres not much u can do except maybe advance your ignition timing via the distributor a couple degrees. and maybe modding the factory airbox to make it a little less restrictive

Grab one of these


begging cutting, free performance upgrade. I will guarantee you better times, and a faster car.


Seriously now, there's not much you can do for free, only weight reduction, but unless you strip down the car to the metal, the difference won't be much.

You want stupid sounding cheap ideas, lets see, build a PVC pipe "Cold Air Intake", check new houses construction areas for free piping , do the infamous resistor mod on you IAT sensor, 99Cent pack at radio shack, advance your timing, free, use a 12mm wrench,, gut out your factory cat conv.,free but a PITA. But in the end it is better to wait and get the right parts.
