1998 Sunfire, 2.2L auto
Well a good suggestion is that if you ever have money, don't just spend it to spend it...save it. Find what you like or want and then you can save up to that point then you'll spend your money more whole heartedly instead of spending $200 on junk. That's just my tip.
Now, with that said, I would save up for a Cat-back setup. If you want options as far as who to go with, just ask but that's what most people start with. They usually do intake first, then exhaust system.

buy some instant lotto tickets or hit the casino, unless you listen to NJHK and save it, that will be a good way for you to be able to afford "performance" anything for $200

Basically. HP isn't cheap...gotta spend more money than $200 unfortunately. Heck, I've spent about $3,000 in parts and labor in just my motor itself and I only did HALF of it so far lol. Tack on about another $2,300 for the turbo setup and another $800 for the installation...yeah...big power isn't cheap. The key is to save for what you want and not to spend your money on just anything.
Good luck saving.

Yep 200 dollars isnt gonna by much.
I do see that you have an auto and if you got the right tranny you can get the B&M shiftplus. That is a good mod to do.

id save for a full exhaust personally. header, high flow cat, and cat-back
thats your best bet IMO

Unfortunately, the 2.2L is the 3speed (correct me if I am wrong) and the B&M is for the 4speed only.
I saved up, got my exhaust for $500 at a local shop installed, I spent about $80 on my CAI and I have the upper motor mount. Just look around and see what you like, maybe you do want to go boost, but $200 isn't gonna buy much. I would save up. For $300 you can get a header and cat, then just get some piping, a muffler (or two) and you're all set as far as exhaust.
Do what you want to do, not what other people want you to do!

Ban low-performance cars, not high-performance ones.
I spent $200 on a DIS module, then it was realized upon me that it wouldn't work...
So I un-spent my $200 and here I am today.
