Intake and Exhaust....cheapest per hp gained.
Play with the timing...a little advance can help your initial jump, a little retard can help your top end (dont over retard though...exhaust manifold will start glowing
)
N2O, SuperCharger in a Bottle, Squeezing the Juice, the Cheap Stuff... it really is a big gain for no work. Before going with N2O though I would look into an ignition system. Something that can ignite a more exotic fuel mix and something that can retard timing under shot.
The ignition will help throttle response too...good idea just to stay N/A. Like wise fuel flow is important. Aim for tight air/fuel ratios. Exhaust and Intake seem to help make more power because they also cause cars to run a little fat, but becareful, too much fuel can slow you down too.
Lighten the car....strip it out. Look at any drag car...nothing in it. If you want subs and seats...its a choice and trade off.
Traction...keep good tread to the ground.
stiffen the suspension...helps with the hole-shot.
Forced Induction: TURBO! Yep, higher air densities mean more air passes through the motor. The motor being a big air pump, means more air in, more air out, more power to the ground. Compressed air....aka Artificial Cubic Inches.
:-o :-Z Complete motor build. Higher compression pistons, increased VE in the head, cams, valves, balancing. Big dollars..the only way to get the big numbers.
