Hi Everyone!

I own a '98 SOHC Sport 32k 4x4, and I want to get "her" movin' alittle more.

What are the top 3-5 upgrades i can do to beef up the performance? (cost doesn't matter)

Granted "she" has power, but she is just alittle underpowered for my taste. It's not high end power i'm looking for, i'm not racing "her" all the time.

It's more low-end mid-range power, the power you need to get on an expressway, or quickly accelerate around obsticles to avoid danger and anyone living in the NY area knows what I'm talking about !

Listen I guess what I'm really trying to say is I wish they had a v8 motor in a '98 sport, but since they don't i'll have to beef up what I have!

Thanks for all the input

Exhaust
Intake (KKN, K&N, etc)
Chip (Diablo or Superchip)

Thats about all there is for the SOHCs, not much in the way of aftermarket bolt ons. Good luck with your upgrades.

i would go with a 75 mm pro-m with a diablo chip and a nice magnaflow cat back.

Simplest way to increase low end acceleration... swap your gears to a 4.10:1. Better acceleration, but decreased gas milage at highway speeds.
