Is it possible to harness pure 30hp in a stock engine configuration?
Please advice me, no turbo or supercharged please.

What upgrades I need to attain 30wrhp ?


Thanks for the help.

I never understood why people purchase a nearly-maxxed out N/A car and want a 15% power gain.

Why not learn to harness the power you have better instead of adding more? If you want straight-line speed, get a V8 and go nuts.

You will maybe gain about 30 whp with I/H/E and a good tune.

Nitrous Oxide.

Otherwise what year? 2000 AP1?
Change rear end gear ratio.
Also the 2000-2001 ECU has less midrange power than the 03. I believe a ECU swap can be done.

I am not sure of his SN, but there is a member here who did a test pipe, converter back exhuast, intake, VAFC and a solid tune. He dynoed at or around 230whp. I will be doing the samething he did, but just bought wheels so its gonna be a minute.

I don't think this engine is maxed out.

Spoon swaps in their ECU with tweaked map, exhaust, exhaust manifold, intake filter (!) and gained something like 30 whp.

spoon ecu is expensive though.
