What to use/do to make it perform better?

[dexta182]

I want to make my car run and perform better without spending tooo much money. Its running stock atm (apart from the CAI)

does air filters make a difference is running and power? I have a CAI but use the repco air filters, is their a better one to use?

Oil, does it make a difference as well? is so what’s good/bad?

Petrol, I use the high octane petrol and I think it makes a difference.
Spark plugs? SP leads? Water coolant?

Any input would be good.
Thanks

well saying you want your car to run and perform better without spending to much money is a bit of a double untundra...
because you spend money and you get what you pay for...all those little things like leads and plugs wont make any real change.
a hi-flow air filter would be worth while with a cai setup...but once again you get what you pay for and the good ones aint cheap.
if you want some extra performance out of your car you should look into a new exhaust for some noticable power and torque increases.

Exhausts arent too expensive if you know where to look. I got a 2.5 inch full system with extractors for $570. I installed it myself, but its not too expensive.
