I know that people here are consistently asking about upgrading this that or the other thing. here is an article done by a non-commercially biased magazine, that has tested some of the common and easy ways to add (maybe) HP to a stock setup and still remain "stock"

 

Very interesting find. Well worth the read.

 

Some good thoughts: ign wiring is the first mod to make. The less resistance, the more pwr... Remember: u need WIRES.

They did not test bosch plugs!

Engine is an instrument. How they ? forgot that Exhaust swap needs balanced intake mod. You cannot get more out than u get in...

 

Thanks. The VG could use all the help it can get.

 

Don't know how much translates to the Max, but GRM's current project car is a '91 Sentra. Take any additional idea's you can.http://grmotorsports.com/news/catego...n-sentra-se-r/

 

no, that is not always the case.

 

i heard that an easy way to get hp is to sell your camaro and get a something actually fast.

 

my camaro is fast.
on the highway

 

In case of conducting sparkies to pluggies, conDucting every electron 'ere results in every electron sparKing there.

 

Wish I had the money to shave my tires for peak traction

 

even if I had the money I dont think I could do that

 

if you raced you would.

 

You'd be suprised how little it costs and how much faster both tires and car can get. These are my Hankook HTRII405's. Even on the rears they get nice and sticky and clean up anything they ran over.

 

How exactly are tires shaved?

Edit: Apart from driving.

 

there's a machine for it.

 

nice attachment, thanks

 

I just don't have the money for new ones after those are worn off.

 

Oh really? No, really though, theres a machine for it? Whats it called?

 

a tire shaving machine.
it's got a heated blade and works like a planer on wood IIRC

 

So, killing your tread = better traction?

 

for autoX yes
