does anybody know of any tips on how to tweak my car or somethin into getting a little more power, besides weight reduction!?

Post by **crzycav86** » Sun Sep 10, 2006 12:40 pm

ummm... buy a ka turbo kit?

and no, weight reduction does not increase power.

i have a t25, cant upgrade my turbo yet, and sorry about the weight reduction, u know what i mean, a better time in the 1/4 mile without taking stuff out.

You could always modify your engine to flow more air. I hear that makes your car faster...

Making reliable power at these levels isn't really voodoo; quality parts and good tuning make power. Good job at having a running turbo car at 17, aslong as you don't drive like an a$$.

Look into an oil catch can. Do a search for 'beesandgoats integra turbo' on google and follow the steps for crankcase ventilation. That is an easy 10hp.

Index the spark plugs so electrode is not in the way of the fuel. Google 'spark plug indexing'.

Install a thermal insulator intake manifold gasket.

Tune your A/Fs to 12.5:1.

Run highest octane possible.

Install an aftermarket coil (blaster SS) or re-wire the stock one to the battery. Re-gap your BKR7E plugs to the highest possible. Probably around .038" at 7psi.

Make a heatshield around the air filter and thermal wrap the cold pipe.

Try those and let us know

Thats a gay post, some noob is going to be searching. Find your stupid post and possiably ruin something.

Search! everybody! Search

Most of that is pretty legit advice; plug indexing is just not that common/needed.

Post by **NateDogg** » Mon Sep 11, 2006 6:47 pm

All you haters helped this guy out?

Thats right, didn't think so...

Oh well, at least you upped your post-whore count :thumbsup

Locked for violating the "too much bad information" clause.

lol jeez...

Alright Rekless, heres the deal. You CANT get easy, cheap power out of these motors. The sad truth is that there really ARE no secrets that will provide power that you will notice. If crankcase ventilation truly was a reliable, worthwhile power booster - dont you think people would be doing it all the time?! The fact of the matter is that power costs money. Lots of money. Keep looking for the easy way out, and you'll end up with either a busted car, or an empty wallet with no results.

I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but thats just how it is with cars.

And to you guys who fed into feeding this kid horrible information, shame on you...
