I have been chasing more horsepower since the day I bought my car and to be honest I do not think that the HP modifications have been worth the money. The suspension, short shifter, exhaust (for improved sound) have had a bigger impact on driving satisfaction. I do not think that any of the common modifications reduce reliability in any way (other than oiled cone filter damaging the MAF). Unless you start looking at forced induction (big reliability risk) or a higher displacement transplant you just are not going to turn this car into a dragster. Given that realization you need to enjoy the car for what is. And that is an extremely well balanced, precise handling vehicle with moderate HP.
