What could i do to make my 2001 Ford Taurus SES considerably faster?

I really like my Ford Taurus. Its in great shape and i like the body style. However my one problem is that it only has 155 Horsepower. I want to keep it but i would like to make it faster. Is there anything i can do, any kits or anything i can get that will make my good car into a great car?What could i do to make my 2001 Ford Taurus SES considerably faster?Cold Air intake - ~$300

10%+

Exhaust - ~$500

5%+

Hi perf Ignition - ~$250

5%+

Re-Chip computer (or reprogram) ~$750

15%+



So, 30% after all this, you can get about 200HP which is respectable.



THEN, if you really want to get creative 鈥?Supercharger: ~$2000.00 and about 50-100hp

But you鈥檇 better get better tires after all this or you鈥檙e a dead man. You need more meat on the road to stay on the road.What could i do to make my 2001 Ford Taurus SES considerably faster?You have a small econo type car.

Maybe you could do an 18 second 1/4 mile.

If you could double the power, you could run a 14 second 1/4.

That is about what a stock 4.6 Mustang can run.

IMHO, you'd be better off trading it in on the Mustang...........What could i do to make my 2001 Ford Taurus SES considerably faster?Emissions removed makes a big improvement, shouldn't cost much, the hard part is trying to find someone willing to do it.
