sell it and get a GS430.

Or, put a turbo on it.

That actually pretty much sums it up. A turbo kit while expensive is going to be the best bang for the buck. You could do tons of bolt-on's but its not going to reach the performance of a turbo kit. Besides you'll still need the exhaust with the turbo kit.

GS430's aren't that fast. If you want a fast 4 door get an M5

although reasonably op isnt gonna sell his car to buy a gs430....they essentially right....either a engine swap, a supercharger, or turbocharger.

NEX dry shot kit should be fun but in reality a turbo kit or aristo swap will be better in long run.
