A 5hp increase in a vehicle with 100 hp is quite noticeable. But, your mods are your choice.

you dont want to spend a "dime" for what i bet is 4-5 hp.. but your next post you consider probably spending 5g on 103 hp.. thats not much sense.. $25 per 1 hp > $48 per hp and thats cheap for that swap..

i think you need to do some reading here, if your trying to beat your brothers car, you'll have a tough time competing with a car that is twice the money.

yeah but think of what I can do with it. HAY srry I'M an ass you guys enjoy adding the underdrive pulley no horse power will be gained it just give the engine less drag. If it were a 2.0 engine adding a underdrive pulley it would be equivalent to removing 100lbs. no more. no hp. But none the less a great find tell you what when you find somthing that will add 20-50 HP I'm in.

I could throw together a turbo kit, but that would cost $3k+.

i think you are missing the concept here. that concept is making the most of what you have.

a header, pulley, exhaust, and cai together probably would add up to about 20-25 hp.. Maybe even more because they would feed off one another, all bolt on parts. Have that, and add a set of cams, and pistons, you would be able to get into the 150-160hp range.

if you want bigger hp you either need a swap, or a different car, but the gearing in the aveo works well for what the aveo has to offer. So a little more hp would only make it that much more fun.
