These are the current mods I have done to my auto daily driver Xa,

Weapon R intake (wrapped)(with air scoop)
DC header (wrapped)
2" piping(wrapped) with stock resonators/mufflers
Perrin pulley
Custom Nitrous Express kit(35 shot)
NGK iridium plugs
Ground wires
TB coolant bypass
Hawker 15lbs. battery
Tein S tech springs / TRD shocks
Hotchkiss Front/Rear Swaybars
Custom upper Front/rear strut bars
15" Rota slipstreams
Muteki light weight tuner lugs
4300k HID kit


now, in terms of performance, what else can I do other than Turbo/supercharger? or shall i say what else is available? i want to keep the body relatively stock, so CF hoods/latches/bodykits are not an option. Does anybody makes cam/ cam gears for our car?

I was thinking about APEXi SAFC II, but i'm not sure if that would work with our ECU yet! HELP! :bow:

:pray: Now I REALLY wish I have an 5 speed, I share car with my GF so I have an AUTO so thats outta window!

Exhaust I dun wanna change out, I really don't want attention especially those with blue/red lights. It really doesn't change that much NE-ways considering i'm already running 2" for a 1.5L.

In terms of how much HP..... I dunno.... Hopefully 95-100 at least? I've raced my friends 00 V6 accord auto. Was right behind him without Perrin pulley and 35 shot. After the pulley and 35 shot, he was GONE!

So other than doing engine balancing, which i dunno anyone that does this, is there anything else? or have i hit a wall already?

upgrade your brakes.
perrin fuel rail
frame braces
coilovers instead of just springs and struts
if you really want your car to handle well, get a roll cage to stiffen it up :eyebrow:
thats about it...put your car on a diet

Very odd that you run nitrous but have stock resonator and muffler , swap that sheet right there.

I'm sure there are a few reputable Performance shops in LA that dont just sell mufflers...
Check the yellow pages or do what I did, Ask around at the local dragstrip, the Muscle car guys seem to have this done more than the Import crowd, if that helps...

oh , one more thing upgrade to a larger oem style muffler , say an exlipse v6 muffler , quiet but meant for more flow so higher flow than stock.

he has a 4 door with two 10" system and hez rolling on 18"s. Thats probably whats slowing him down. However, he does have, AEM CAI and Pulleys though! I dunno even with 200HP/185 torque a 3600lbs. Automatic is not going to be that fast! Hez going all out, i know cuz everyone is picking on him! its like ,

"Hey you got beat by a Scion?"
"Ya"
"Well, those TCs are pretty nimble!"
"Nah, its a Xa"
"WTF!? Oh my god!?"
:clap:

Gotta love that!!
