power build questions.....

whats up guys, i got a o5 scion xa and im looking to make a lil more power then what i got now lol. as of my last dyno i had 110hp/109tq with a slipping clutch, i want to bust 150 but im hearing it a lil tough unless i use boost or nitrous. now i already have Injen intake, megan header, trd axle back and a resinator delete, what else can i use to grab some more power? open to all suggestions. i am looking into a RSR exhaust and a cat delete with O2 extenders, i am considering doing a head kit with 1mm over sized valves, diff cams and larger throttle bodie, but i dont feel like dropping 2gs on that when a basic turbo kit is like 300 more. so what are you guys thinking?

+1 on NST crank pulley.

+1 on a new clutch.

+1 on taking out weight.

i had a buddy shave 37lbs off a camaro in just extra threads throughout the car. he loosened every nut and re-tightened, cut off the excess threads.

that wasnt including the stuff that got cut, just the ends of the bolts.
