I'm Zach. I live in Panama City FL and I had a 2003 vibe GT completely stock. I have only had to do routine oil changes and car runs like a dream. Only one part has "failed since I bought it a year and a half ago and that was the starter. Best car I've ever owned. Now I'm just considering aftermarket upgrades to make horsepower and fuel economy gains.

Welcome, I have a 03 GT also.
As far as going faster, Intake, Header, Exhaust for about $600-700. With the MWR EMS-4 you can lower LIFT and get more out of the IHE , $1400. Dyno Time with the EMS-4 would be good $200-300

Best bang for your buck would be a set of cams.

Man, I wanna do cams on my base so bad, but the amount of work necessary is daunting. Maybe someday when I have a well-lit garage.

Yeah for sound, not for power.
