    Im sorry to say it doesnt work this way.... there is always a big controversy over this topic which can be found here(http://www.club-tc.com/forums/perfor...s-more-hp.html), but Im going to say the usual is what your looking for, I/H/E. I=Intake, Cold air gives more power, but cost more/ H=Headers, 4-2-1 is the best of the 2AZ-FE and this has a chance of setting off your CEL/E=Exhuast, Get a name brand is all I can say here, Fleabay stuff, sounds and performs like its from FlEaBAY.


    On all of these things, first search this site for peoples personal experiances(we have a search button next to the New Posts button on the action bar at the top of the screen near your user info), then search Youtube to make sure its the sound you want and like for your car, then search our sponsers for the product, believe it or not most of the time you can get it cheap from then because they cater directly to us. After all this is done, install the parts, then go have fun.

    Go to Ptuning.com - Performance Auto Parts Warehouse, Installation, and Dyno Tuning Services ... They have a lot of stuff on their website and I recommend them to anyone. They know what they are doing and talking about. I trust them with anything. They held an event a while back where they put a bunch of cars on the dyno and test them out. They found out that the greatest increases came from an axleback exhaust and a CAI. For some reason, the Injen CAIs had the BEST gains and I don't remember what axleback had the best gains though. A friend of mine has an HKS exhaust and Injen CAI and her car sounds very nice to be honest. I know a lot of headers mess with the sound quality and make it raspier though. I guess here are some suggestions to start with. If there is shop similar to PTuning in your area, roll up there and get some ideas.
    They see me rollin', they hatin'! <3
