In all reality, you won't get any MORE HP, you will just be making sure your engine is living up to it's potential. You also might see an increase in mileage.

i believe the g-power ngk plugs are really nice plugs from what i hear and a nice set of wires would help but if your car is fairly new i would say intake be the first mod not only does it sound nice it will give your car a little more punch in the top end

If you have a five speed, get rid of your shifter and get a short shifter. I believe everyone who owns a manual tib knows this. The stock shifter is junk.
