1) Is it possible to increase my car's performance up to 150bhp without turbocharging? Which one is more cost effective.. turbocharging or N/A?
2) I'm also looking at increasing the braking power of the car. Been looking at both Brembo and Endless. But I need some idea on the price first. Not to sure where else I can go to do my research so anyone knows if these two a good brand?
3) The new R3 Rims here looks very nice. Is this a lightweight rims or not?? Will changing to these rims affect my performance?

4) Turbocharging... is it a good idea? I've heard of Xenon's kit: http://www.camproturbo.com/ . But ofcourse I would prefer an unbiased opinion here first before I head there where the opinions will definitely be 'all good'.
I don't usually do 180km/h above on the highway. In fact my highest speed so far has been only about 160km/h.
What I'm looking at is to increase the overall pick-up of the car. For example when some high-speed cruiser (Mitsubishi Lancer GT or Honda Civic) flashing lights at the back of my car... I like to have the liberty of dropping my gear... have the performance to out run them for like 10 to 20 seconds until I reach 160km/h before changing to left lane and giving them the way (didn't disturb the traffic in anyway by doing this
ofcourse unless I'm already at 180km/h... I'll just go to the left lane if the road is clear).
Thanks everyone for the help... and CPS engine is good. I'm glad I decided to give them the chance.
1. yes it is possible... cams, port polish, intake, exhaust, remap ecu, etc... it can get u 150bhp.... 150whp is a little hard, but not impossible...2) I'm also looking at increasing the braking power of the car.

2. if u plans to maintain rim size 16", try get small 4pot brakes.... IMO, 4pot is good enough for even track use... evo twinpot would also be a good choice....
3. not sure its lightweight or not... but its not made by Advanti... so, i think it weighs more or less like other similar sports rim... lightweight rims do improve performance, especially during acceleration... slightly heavier rims gives better stability at high speed (above 180kmh)... remember to use good tyres....
4. turbocharging is an all together new chapter adi... bolt on turbo for campro engines used to be highly not recommended as campro internals aint very strong, even in NA terms.... design flaw i would say.... since its ur daily car, i would suggest to keep it naturally aspirated, do some mild mods... make it fun to drive while maintaining reliability... no point having a monster engine but having all sorts of reliability problem....
