      like how much of a gain do you want? 30%/60%/100% more than stock?

      Also add you location to your profile, someone nearby might have one you could try & see if that suits your needs.

        Easy and free:
        1. Drill about two dozen holes in the bottom airbox piece. Better breathing at higher RPM.
        2. Advance the timing to say 10 degrees BTDC (stock is eight) and use premium gas.

        Edit: OK, not so free if you hafta use premium; about 10% more expensive. But about 10% more HP too, so take your pick. But the hole drilling is something I do on every car, and it does not affect MPG if you drive economically.
