Post by fergy »

hi guys, i want to try and get as much power out of my pug as i can i have put a k&n ait induction kit on it and to be honest its sound like... well nots go there so i just removed the air box and used the old pug hose its sounds better now and it has give it more power BEING HONEST!!!! gets to 3700rpm ands she gone had a vectra 2.0 sri off no probs but its that time delay getting into the power i know 16v arent the fastest off the line but it takes so long.
I have been reading up on fuel boost vales i know there great on turbo's but also as i have been reading there good on non turbo's reducing flat spots and better responce? Not sure if its a silly idea or not any more mods i can do that are not to big,because ive just had the clutch done and the engine has perfect comprestion all help is welcome and i will post pics of my take on an air induction kit lol ;)

If you want more power, buy a car with a bigger engine.

If you want more speed, remove the seats, soundproofing, trim etc. Or buy a car with a bigger engine
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang
