Default GS300 performance chip

I've been looking for an inexpensive but decent performance chip, any ideas?

Usually those 2 adjectives do not do well together, however I will let some more experienced folk chime in. You might want to post this or ask a mod to move to the GS forum, might have better results. Good luck!

Replacing the exhaust from the headers all the way back to the mufflers is a good start but will not yield too much more power. The best way to get power is FI (forced induction) B.K.A. turbocharging or supercharging.

Thanks for the info, turbo was on my mind but it'll be a Lil before I can do that. I want to do a smaller set up to keep the gas mileage and to keep the car as quite as possible
