All motor Power mods

What performance mods make an N/A motor more powerfull.

just a list, like lightenned flywheel and stuff, where would u start?

sorry if this has been coverred.

i rekon start with the valve strain. upgrade springs/retainers/cams. port/polish head, valve job. while the head is off, go a thiner headgasket. COmpression is ur friend. lightened flywheel is a good start on the drivetrain, and maybe a heavy duty organic clutch. If u wanna go for more, change pistons and rods for more compression and stregth.

go the usual i/h/e mods, can port out that intake manifold /TB.

laslty finish things off with an aftermarket ECU, injectors and a good tune!

Firstly, I would get the most out of the drivetrain i.e. clutch and lighter flywheel, higher final drive, lighter wheels as well if possible. Then do I/H/E then all the stuff Weq said.

[[[d a n n y]]]

for me heavy duty clutch after the I/H/E
and then cams ECu etc etc

I/H/E + FW + final drive kits + tuning lots of it....

if yer not happy then go cams & head work...or resleeve the block or both...but it gets a bit expensive after a while and most turbos will still knock u out..daily drive wise...

Just to clear something up.... a lighter flywheel will NOT make your engine more powerful as in produce more power.

Yes it MAY free up a couple KWs, and it will rev more freely, but it will NOT make an engine more powerful!

I think he was refering to power as in 'I WANT MODS THAT GIVE ME THAT MORE POWER EXPERIENCE'

hence a lightened flywheel + final drive kit will do this..

why heavy duty clutch everyone?? the stock clutch is fine for all the power ur 'drivetrain' modes will give... even i/h/e i wouldnt upgrade until i have a final power goal and u can get a clutch to suit/

While you're replacing the flywheel and FD might as well go for a HD clutch while the box is out.

but then u install ur CAM and up the compression, and the HD clutch may not be good enough. or u might go overboard with the clutch.. i think power then clutch, just my opinion thoguh.

[Phat_ciVic]

yep, use the old clutch till it stuffs

To be honest this is what I did, installed clutch and fly last then got the sucker tuned. If in doubt just go for something like ORC from the start
