Need more info, what are you driving: a SVT, a Duratec 5 spd, a Zetec ATX, a tempo?

hmm, only way I can see you getting it up that high that cheap is nitrous. (probably atleast a 100shot)

which I wouldnt recommend.

Now another 2grand or so and you could consider putting a supercharger on it, but pretty much no matter what your going to want intake/exhaust done. (at least optimize y-pipe, headers, etc.)

theres a fair bit you can do cheaply/for nothing, (gut precats, y-pipe, intake/heatshield, throttlebody, clean intake manifolds, etc.) but don't see anyhting that is going to net you a solid 150hp (at the wheels) short of n2o for that price.

Your only option is nitrous. Both a turbo kit or supercharger are well beyond that. Not sure whether you have and svt or not, but I dont even think the stock clutch will handle the tq loads with nitrous. Probably want to upgrade the lsd while your in there too. We all know they are essentially made of glass. But nitrous, clutch, and lsd is already over the $1500 mark. It pays to play.

You can buy a nitrous kit and see how long everything holds together. Might as well save your money until you can buy everything to support the power or invest your money into something else into the car.
