Open up your wallet and dump it out,then start on your credit cards.
250hp on an N/A is un-doable with just add ons.
BUT you can do it with a Turbo engine (TII) swap...and a bit of aftermarket stuff on that engine.

He's right , you aren't going to get much more power with any mods..
If you don't have a cat back exhaust get that..
The best thing you can really do is get an safc (fuel controller) and get your car tuned on a dyno, you'll be able to squeeze another 10-25 HP out of it by removing some unneeded gas from the air fuel mixture.
At best you'll get around 200hp to the flywheel, 160-170 to the wheels.

The cost is somewhere between $0 and $20,000, depending on how you obtain the parts, how much work you can accomplish yourself, and how nice you want the result.
Its cheaper and easier to just buy a car that came with turbo than do the swap in all honesty.
If you have really want and have the time and money do it.
Just realize it'll end up costing you just as much as a car with Turbo when you're finished.
Engine/tranny- $1200
Wiring/ecu/sensors - 300
Drivetrain- $500
Misc- 100
Total - $2100 + labor (roughly)

Fcs are made to be abused...if you buy one and are afraid to run it hard you're driving the wrong car.
A redline a day keeps the carbon away.
Ps- I'm getting a t2 that's only needing a rebuild for $1000

What I mean is the fcs are being abused too much... And I'm not sure how long it can last after I buy that
Most junkyards charge alot for engine related parts on rare cars .
99% of them have been crashed or have engine problems (or some other major problem)-dont expect top quality parts, the most usable parts are always the least easily broken ones. (Brake setup, control arms, etc)

In my opinion, if this FC is your daily driver I wouldnt do major performance mods to it. N/A FC's are very reliable. Keep it as your daily and buy a T2 to dump money into. If not then you have a few options of motor swaps....T2, RE, REW, V8. If you want to stay NA then you pretty much are going to spend a fuckload of money trying to make it beastly.
Ahh on my above post about junkyard parts I mean salvage a turbo from a diesel or something. Ya rebuild, and cleaning/refurbish hrs but some dodges' have halteks. U just gotta know where to look
Those parts are negotiable too. Something u don't have at parts stores.
