Best way to get more hp?

I recently purchased a Evolution CS with some custom tunes. I was wondering what the easiest/cheepest way to get more horse power out of my engine? Seems pretty slow and sluggish. I know it's a truck, but was hoping to get some extra hp somewhere. Any ideas??

Efans and longtubes.....end of story unless you make the step up to a supercharger....if you do forced induction your edge cs can be custom tuned for it but you'll need to drive to PHP in Winder, GA to get it dyno tuned......That's the only way Bill does superchargers and he's the only one that writes tunes for edge products.....

If you don't want to take that drive you're probably looking at purchasing another programmer.....

Never said I didn't want to know about boost or anything else. I was asking a question about getting more hp. I literally just got my CS in the mail the other day and getting another one is not an option. So therefore I was inquiring about other options.

If you want a blower, sell the CS now and get a SCT.

If you want to stay bolt on N/A you are in the wrong forum.

They mean superchargers/turbos (you might have posted in the wrong section of the forum)

As far as you sounds like you want to keep it N/A (Naturally Aspirated) so you may want to do a search and you will find tons of into on HP boosters or start a new thread in another section
