If you are willing to remve the engine, you can get a pretty sick cam fromJEGS orSUMMIT for around $300-$500, which will makemore power and more pep, put you have to make sure you will have the cam for 9.5-1 compression, or whatever your engine's comp. is.Also, a bigger crankshaft can cause more power, because a bigger crank increases cubic inches, and shorter piston travel, but its all up to you...have fun with it man.

On the air intake note I found a kit from K&N fro about $300. Lookin at my air box though I think I can delete the air box and get a high flow cone fliter for much cheaper. Any thoughts?

Those K&N intakes are WAY too expensive. You can make your own FWI for $50-60 if you do it right. But if you want to spend a little bit of money on a good CAI, then I would go with this one for $100 less then the K&N: http://www.zzperformance.com/grand_p...=247&catid=113

The right cam will always make more hp then rockers. It's just that the trade off is that the job is difficult to install a cam, whereas the rockers can be done quickly and is very easy.

What's the difference in power gains wit the 1.9s and an s1x cam? Cuz that's what im leaning towards.
