Hi and welcome to FTE. I think a superchip or a microtuner would be a good beginning for you and they are easy to install yourself.

Please take a few moments to read the forum guidelines and the READ FIRST notes on each forum to familiarize yourself with our site. We have a lot of ifo and many people willing to help in any way they can.
