Its not cheap, but look into a tuner like and Edge or SCT. I have an SCT XCal2 with custom VMP tunes, and its amazing over stock

probably gearing and/or tire size. But why, burnouts are useless and tires cost. But yeah a tuner plugs up into the OBD-II plugin and reflashes the computer with custom tunes. also freeing up power like using efans and underdrive pulleys help.
