Most people think that power only comes from an engine swap, but you can actually do some damage with stock power. You just need to get Intake systems, and a cat back system, ect. Then from there its all proper tuning with timing retard/advance and adding enough fuel to the system for maxmim performance. If you want seriouse power it all comes from turbos so stay away from drag strips untill you go turbo

Aside from swaps and turbos, the best way to be able to accelerate quickly is to practice being a better driver. Our GT's are geared extremely short, so if you can shift very quick and efficiently and utilize what power we do have then you can probably accelerate well with some mild modifications.
Do realize that acceleration and top speed aren't totally separable, however. Acceleration is just a means to get to a top speed, of which ours isn't really that high to begin with....so realisticly aside from improving your personal driving skills, the next step is obviously more power. -------------------- 3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting. |

Improve acceleration. Very simpel. Strip the car. Weight difference between normal and track day for me is about 120-140 kg

Traction, the perfect slip of the clutch, improve shifting quicker.
