power Adding

I am a college student, and do not have alot of money to drop into my car. What, in your opinion, would give me the best horsepower gain for little money. I already have dual exhuast and a K&N.

Won't give you horsepower but will increase performance and that is to go with 3.73 or 4.10 rearend gears. Will give your car about 3-4 tenths quicker in the quarter.

Will that kill my gas mileage??

yeh it won't help it, but it does make the car better.

By K&N are you just talking about the air filter iteself or the CAI that K&N makes. Another thing you could try that I am working on now is new pulleys... it isnt that pricey.

Its just the filter, not the CAI. I didn't know if the CAI would be worth the money or not. The pulley's are definatly on my list though. I was also considering a new rear end, and an aluminum driveshaft.

I put a BBK CAI on my car. It was definatly a noticable difference it cost me about 150 bucks from summit. not hard to install either... i did it myself.
