Best, cheapest upgrade:

Sell it and buy one with the beams 3sge engine.

But people rarely take the easy route, with things like this.
Its more likely that he will spend thousands on upgrading the less potent engine, to get a minimal performance gain. :?

But, such is life. :P

How do you expect us to know the local car part shops in Barbados?

If you looking for car parts (bolt on bits) then try takakaira they've got most bolt on bits for sale from all the big name brands. Shipping from Japan.
