I'm 19 and new to the forums. I've had my car for ~3 years now andI want to get some more power out of the ol 1.8 but all the chips I've found seem to be no-name cheapos. Anyone have any chips they've used and had good luck with, or any other recommendations for getting any more power out of it? And also what are the prices roughly? I've got a 94 st 1.8, has headers and full exhaust 2.5 inch and an intake. Thanks for any help!

Welcome to the forums man, yea our 1.8's dont have that much power but make up for it by having great low end torque. As far as your mods go, the intake wont help very much as our motors dont need much air, the header helps a little but the exhaust is too big...I would have gone with a 2" or 2.25" at its biggest. If you really want more power at a cheaper cost I would go with a turbo, I'm in the process of doing this myself (getting parts at the moment) or if you have more money go with a 3SGTE.
read through the stickies as there is a lot of info there or do a google search and most of the time you will find the answer. --------------------  Power in Balance 90 ST coupe- Sold 95 ST hatch- Dead :’( 02 Impreza RS- DD |
