If it's the 4 banger with 8 spark plugs I saw a mod that has them all fire during combustion instead of exhaust. That'd probably help quite a bit. No parts or tools needed either.

Ok, lift kit installed and I'm happy with it. Only issue was that alignment was 180 instead of 55 because it needed shims. Just a little added cost but over all I'm happy.
