Well, welcome aboard!!! Quite an impressive array of accessories you have there. You might be able to tweek the motor a bit more but, unless your adding nitrius or a turbo or replacing it you'll have to live with the excellent preformance you already have. As for lowering, haven't found much. Good Luck though!!

Now that you got the basic upgrades out of the way it is time to move up. If you aren't ready for an induction boost or have the nerves for internal work there is a free and easy alternative. You can port and polish your intake manifold. If you are really on the ball then you can shave the head a little. I had done both to my Accent with suprising results.
