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

Yeah... I got bills too... But there's another keyword you forgot to mention... it's called "budgeting"... I honestly don't think I twisted anything around. I understood your question/statement loud and clear. Here's the ultimate question... what is your OVERALL target for power? If you say around 250 HP, it WOULD BE more cost effective to do a swap. Now if your ultimate goal is about 160 HP, then go for the basic bolt-ons... With that said... what kind of info would you like us to discuss? Would you like to know how much you will gain by installing X aftermarket product? How does X compare to Y? Does X and Y together produce a more effective combination, or will they only be pushed to it's potential if Z is installed? If this is what you want to discuss... then say so... Nevertheless, I'm sure no one will want to spend money just to punch out 160... why stop there? People might as well go for the gold and push 230+, which can be easily attained (and at a lower cost) through a swap or turbo kit... This post has been edited by kuya1284: Aug 18, 2003 - 9:59 PM |
