all you die hard gear heads out there, what are some inexpensive little tricks to better performance? i know in some vehicles you can take out the EGR system, take this out, put that in, etc. etc. Im dumping a huge chunk of money into my car right now and while i have it taken apart in my buddies garage i want to know about any little tricks you guys may know

Its an economy motor. Don't expect gains of more than 3-5hp.

Its an economy motor. Don't expect gains of more than 3-5hp. ya unless your building this thing from the ground up which no one really does with these motors ur not going to get much of a gain. the 5s just isnt a real performance motor, unless you slap a turbo on it and really play around with ur setup. theres alotttt of info on here for stuff like that, but even then, your better of just getting a 3sgte, 2.0 tubro motor or a 3sge beams 2.0 N/A motor -------------------- st205 powered ss3 coupe
