get a cheap boost controller and a good boost gauge, turn the boost up slowly, with no intercooler I'd keep it at 10 -12 psi, free flowing exhaust and intake will help get even better results, then it's I/C time and if your motivated you can strip the interior, a/c and the bumpers and brackets to get the weight down, the cheapest mod is to add lightness

Do NOT remove the front bumper!!! The front bumper connects the frame rails on the car and is structural. Without the bumper the frame will tweak very fast.

extreme lightening by removal of saftey items is for limited track use only, wouldn't want to be on the streets without protection
