More Power
Happy New Year. I have a '96 Polar Silver 993 Targa. I lowered the car w/H&R springs and put 18" SSR GT3 wheels to improve the cars handling. Now I'm looking to increase my horsepower w/o a lot of modification. Any ideas?

Seriously, there are very few cheap hp mods esp as your car is a MY96...you're better off spending the money on more suspension parts (sway bars) or taking weight off (mufflers, seats, diet, gut interior) to increase performance.

Having a '96 means that your ECU is unlikely to be upgradeable with a simple chip swap. I agree with David that weight loss is your best option, and will improve not only acceleration but also cornering and braking. There are many threads on the subject if you're interested.
