I'm new, and I don't know what's going on.

I have a 92 camry that is completly stock for the most part. There are no mods to the engine or anything, but I'm looking to find some. I was hoping for some kinda cheap ways to get more power and better gas milage. I'm sure there have been a lot of post like this, but I couldn't find any. So yea, any help would be great.

More power AND better gas milage is an oxymoron. If you want more power, then your gas milage will go down. Welcome to TN.

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.

Well I didn't mean one thing that did both. I'm just looking to improve both. I'm only getting like 20-21 mpg, and I'm pretty sure I should be getting better than that, and who doesn't want more power?
