Hi
i have a 1994 VTIR
My main goal is just to add a little bit more power to the car to cater for the extra 100kilo's the subbox is making and also to make my car feel a bit better up the hills (torque)? or should i not spend the money at all because it would be just a waste?
Firstly Powerchips, i think the company is powerchip.com.au or somthing.
What do they do? because i don't understand how they can make your car get an extra (or up to) 20kw.
My friend who has a BMWis 1990 model bought one of these and had it installed in his car and it made a big difference. The car went from 0-100 in 9.8 sec to 7.5 sec (times are done by hand) but in any event it made the car significantly faster, just as fast as my car. I think vtirs do 0-100 in 7.5?? don't quote me on that.
So would there be a point in purchasing one of these things? and is it like hondata (not that i know much about that either)
or
If the decision to getting the powerchip is a bad idea what mods should i do to my car for under $2000 or should i just live with the extra weight because $2k is not going to make any difference?
The items i was think were.. (mainly because a friend got these things done for $1200
1. extracters
2. exhaust
3. muffler
i already have a muffler (cos i'm ricy hehe) so yeah. Would you suggest these items as well or somthing different? What brandnames if any do you suggest? and roughly the price?
I read somewhere that headers were good for the car because it allows the car to breath more.
Can you guy's recommend what i should do please? if anything at all. Keeping in mind that i don't want to spend more then $2k
Lastly somthing that i have been just thinking about is, should i do somthing to my air filter? because i know it doesn't really make much more power by changing it or is the stock VTIR sufficient.
Thanks
