well the video was on a cell phone in the middle of the night, thats all right the cops showed up ten minutes later so its good that the video was dark cause you cant tell where it wa i have a test run from in the vehicle.

if u dnt have a full exhaust i would try gettin headers with the cat, im sure that would free up alot of HP, you could also go Turbo with the RSM turbo kit. or the hell with it and toss sum Nos

but personally i would straight up go full headers and exhaust, and since u got the 2.4l i would def go for the turbo kit

Night shots suck with a cell phone, but at least you had sound.

You 2.4 can get alot out of it, but it'll cost ya.
Several places still sell headers for the 4cyl pretty cheap too since you only need one.

I didnt know Z-spec (http://www.z-spec.com/)(aka RSM) sold Turbos for the 2.4.....

<edit>
Ok they dont have Turbos, but do hav other fun stuff :D

Z-spec makes overpriced parts. Some things you can do to increase your cars performance is to get an RKSport or Pacesetter header and a high flow catalytic convertor.

Additionally you can swap in a 1995 2.3L quad 4 intake cam *(it's the only OBD2 cam that's hotter than stock, and not a regrind)*, and a 1992-1994 2.3L quad 4 exhaust cam *(there's no cam sensor on the exhaust cam so you can use any of the listed years)*

If you are feeling spendy you can buy the HPTuners, about $650 software, plus getting a laptop if you don't have one, so you can tune your car, hopefully on a dynomometer, and tune your motor to run at optimal performance. Or you can find a tuning house that has a dynomometer and are familiar and tune GM cars, they would most likely have HPTuners in house and will only charge you tuning time and dyno time.
