Upgrade help

I just bought a 2000 maxima GLE and I am looking to upgrade the engines performance, I was wondering if you guys wouldn't mind helping me gather prices and stuff like that. I have 500$ and would like to know what I should get.

I also wanted to know what exhaust you guys like here. I dont want it to sound like a RICEY honda 4 or anything like that, and it doesn't even have to be very loud. Thnx in advance.

BTW, i was already told to get a y-pipe, underdrive pulley, and an intake in that order. But well see what you guys say.

I am also interested in some of those platinum +4 spark plugs? Or some of the sort. What do you guys recommend and is there an increase in performance from high-performance sparks?

I don't suppose you took the time to search the forums and read any of the other 23544 threads posted on this exact same topic?

Here's a link on how to search the org: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=378748

not trying to be a d!ck, but this is a topic that keeps getting posted over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

There are links to parts sites in the Stickies... you can start doing your research there... sorry, there's no reason why someone else should do that kind of research for ya... maybe another kind soul will come along...

For a little over $500, get Hotshot headers... or like Ammi said... y-pipe & cat-back...
