Default $200, what modification?

My car has the usual bolt on mods to an xr6, what should i do next for around $200?

I will be getting an XH intake and does the EA part from box to throttle body make a difference?

Regrind cam or thermos is what im thinking.

put a spool in, MASSIVE HPLOL increase $99 from ebay

other than that, they have these things on ebay that go for 5c ... which apparently makes your car too rich but they also reckon you gain insane amounts of power... i'll believe it when I see it.. :

you should save that $200, get $2000 together and buy turbo setup... and DIY
