since you take your cars to shows and stuff, you should polish the valve cover and clean up the bay real well

Are you going to rebuild your engine with all new internals? It has pretty high miles.

QUOTE my dad never seizes to amaze me! I think you mean "ceases". Otherwise, the sentence would mean "My dad never grabs to amaze me".

Rrrright...Nat, with BOTH those hot exterior bodies like anyone cares whats under the hood.

its really hard to get any power gains out of the NA 5s. the best those mods with probably to is 10-20 hp. id look into doing a turbo setup or a swap if you want 50hp or more out of your car.

Lagos and doubters, never underestimate simply raising compression on a car.. yeah, I dont think she'll get 50 more hp, but I think with all that she SHOULD get more than just a 10 hp gain..

Talking trash is useless, if u really can gain 50hp in ur 5S engine, I think there is nobody do the swap, and also ur dad will work in TRD, dude By the way, after u done it, pls show us the dyno of ur car. |
