    how much are you willing to spend?

    you can go IHE, custom turbo, or engine swap. it all depends on your budget and preference.

    Assuming you already have better wheels, if you want "mucho-power" for 30K, you can try your luck at getting a 2nd hand nitrous oxide system. Its good enough to add 30hp to 50hp to your car. This is much more than other typical bolt-ons will give you for the same money.

    Just save up some money to upgrade your brake pads too.

    you might lose some torque given that your car is an A/T when you upgrade you exhaust diameter and install a freeflow muffler.

    with that budget i'd just go for a set of springs, good brake pads and a filter, kung may tira mags nalang... short of turbo kasi you really won't get much more power from a matic.
