lukEp Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 The standard turbo and engine is good for 200 ponies. Cheapest way ported mani fpr and fcd then set up on a rolling road but if your still on standard boost (9psi) just turning it up to 10-11psi give a noticeable difference Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 do it cheap do it twiceim afraid if you want more power you have to cough upyou can get a bit more if you buy an adjustable actuator and raise the boost to about 0.75 bar but you may hit fuel cut which isnt good for the engine. the best and free way to make your car quicker is by removing weight. e.g spare wheel back seats out etcloads of people can back me up on this taggy was on the track at Japfest 2 and was pretty much wiping the floor with anything and he wasnt running serious power. the trick......he fully stripped out his GT and made it weigh absolutely fuk all lol Hope this helps Quote Link to post Share on other sites
