Any new ideas?

Hey,

Well I have a Injen CAI, TRD Exhaust, Magnecore wires and bosch platnum spark plugs. Whats another mod that I can add to my car that could free up some more horsepower and that is relatively cheap(couple hundred bucks)? I do relized that I can enlarge my exhaust piping, but I don't want to cause I dont want my exahust to be really loud, I like it how it sounds now. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks,

Ross

......type-R stickers?

it wouldnt give you more hp but a new set of sticky tires would be nice. maybe some suspension work i.e. rsb, struts springs etc.....

cant think of anything as far as engine....

I have 18s with good tires, and im not messing with the suspension, Im just looking for something simple, does anyone make pulleys for our cars?

Headers
Rear Sway bar (better handling)
Jims fuel upgrade (fuel lines, pump, regulator and fiter and maybe even upgrade injectors)
Superpro Poly bushings
Short shifter (if you have a manual)
LSD (better traction)

The list is endless - Good luck

Thats the one I have. It took a little modification, but it works great!

Whats LSD? and is upgrading your fuel system possible by doing it yourself?For instance, upgrading injectors? Is it worth it?

Well - I've heard accounts from those who have tried it... some pretty wild trips I guess!!

Seriously though - LSD = Limited Slip Differential... but do they have such a beast for FWD cars? I had one on my Tundra but that was RWD with a solid axle and transfer case. :-?

Yup! I have one from TRD. I think there are at least two other manufacturers that make them. Try the "search" above.

Can anyone elaborate on the fuel system upgrade, costs, is it worth it, etc. Just simple stuff, so I can have a quick idea if everything is worth it.

Thanks

I think this is the most cost effective mod.
You will not believe the difference it can make.
Have you ever put your car into a corner and your car wanted to just keep going straight.
Well, this will solve that problem.
There are two settings if you feel that the "track" setting is to harsh.....but I think most of us like it that way.
