O.k O.k O.k.... Now I have been reading these posts for the past year. I dont say much but I noticed... whenever someone talks about moding there car we constantly come to the 3s-gte swap whatever ever gen1,2,and the almighty 3. Now take that number of recomendations to the number that have actually done the swap, now take that number to those who can actually AFFORD the swap. Given its a good recomendation but lets get real were all pretty much stickin with N/A. Now before I get bashed I love i mean love the 3sgte but its more feasible wallet wise to get down on some serious AFR nology plugs and maybe some cam regrinds. It would be in alot of peoples best intrest to hear some serious knowledge on N/A tune ups. But thats my opinion I could be wrong.....
P.S. I love you guys, dont shun me out |

i dont care what kind of muffler you have, you will never EVER be able to emulate the V-8 sound. its comparing apples and oranges.
everyone is also missing the point that this engine really can push 300HP, granted for the same ammount you could swap in a 3sgte or 4agze and be running 400-500HP... but it is possable (granted they make all the right parts for the engine, which with a 7afe or 5sfe it is highly unlikely.) the 1st problem is this thread was made on the false assumption that keeping a car N/A is a cheaper way of getting HP than forced induction. which isnt true. basic bolt ons just dont do the trick to N/A cars. sure plugs, wires, intake, exhaust, headers all give very good performance gains for the money. just when you spend money on all that, you could afford a custom turbo setup. -------------------- ![]() Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them all No but I don't buy it Like anything you do, as anyone you are Cause I'm...
