Well my car is almost fixed so i'll have money to add some bolt-ons to it soon. Any suggestions? Like what intake? I hear good things about both Injen AND AEM. I'm pretty set on getting the Apexi N1 dual tip exhaust though. What else is there to get to about 200whp with boltons? (if that's possible with the KA)

Not possible with standard bolt-ons. : )

If you want to stay naturally aspirated, standard upgrades are usually Intake ( AEM or Injen are good as you said ), Headers ( you'll probably want hotshot ), and Exhaust ( you already want N1 Dual ). Those three are pretty standrad, and will run close to $1000 for all three, however they will give you a decent power increase. : ) You won't be near 200 rwhp though. : (

I'm going to get the dual n1 and what I've found is that there really isn't a place that has that much cheaper of a price. Some places might have a cheaper price but charge more for shipping so it really balances out. The best idea is to find a place locally that sells them. I'm going to drive about 40 minutes to http://www.enjukuracing.com and pickup mine. Major savings on the shipping costs. But they have a waiting list for the dual n1 and I have to wait:(

Well if you want N/A power youre going to need all these things to get 200rwhp and actually get it to the ground:

honestly dude for all the money youd throw down for all this stuffyoud be better off with a stock SR20DET and maybe even save some cash.Thats why my car is gonna stay stock till i have about 4 grand in the bank and i can get a front clip and get it put in right.
