Default Need help with modding car

I think i'm going to be buying a 05 lancer es soon. I really like the car but i'm afraid that the hp is seriosly lacking. this is my first car so i want to know a few mods i can give it to boost hp.

Unless you get forged pistons, stay away from nitrous... Our motor doesn't handle so great... Piece together a turbo kit and you'll be happy.

Leave it stock, and drive it. Save money for a better platform...

Well get something better then the basic model Lancer then. Buy something already decently fast.
