Need a little more power!

Hey guys,

I am new to the site as of yesterday. I just bought my 02 P5, and am extremely happy with the car overall. But as you all know it could definately use a little more pep. I am wondering what are some good entry level mods I could do to get a little more power outta the good ol 2.0. I am not looking for a whole lot of power but maybe another 10-30hp would be great and I dont want to break the bank either. If you guys could give me some suggestions that would be much appreciated.

P.S. I dont want to void my warranty either at this very moment, so some warranty friendly mods would be best.

Thanks

you need to familiarize yourself with the search button..

also, there is no such thing as "cheap - effective - nonwarranty voiding mods". You can get 1 out of 3 but you have to choose.

Done that many of times now, and dont find much up here in good ol Canada. My warranty will accept suspension, brakes, intake, exhaust, cams, fuel rails, ignitions , and a few others. So I figured I would ask here since most people here know more than I do about which ones are the most effective in certain price ranges. So some recommendations on some of the better ones to look at would be great. I have found a few sites that offer these parts but I just want to know which are the ones I should actually look at and which ones would be a waste of money/ineffective.

If thats not too much to ask.
