Motor/tranny?

A chip or tuner is a simple way off adding power. Throttle body spacers are supposed to add power but I havent heard anything good about them. Better spark plugs/ wires and coil will help. Higher flowing fuel injectors, fuel filter. You could always put NO2 for a little extra kick of power on demand. Depending on the size motor you have, and how much extra power you want, you could find a turbo or SC kit.

Throttle body spacers and a chip sound like the my best bet for my budget but what web sites would be best to look for these add ons.
