Hello Everyone,
First off I would just like to say thankyou for everyone who posts on this web site, I have found out so many different things just by reading other posts. Again this is a great site, thankyou all. Anyway, I own a '96 Celica GT with a 5s-fe. I currently have: NGK Plugs Catback exhaust 2.25" pipeing CAI Header My car has 148,000 miles on it and I was just wondering how I can get some more horse power out of it without swapping and without throwing in a turbo (seems like alot of miles to turbo, prolly a waste...). At this point I am kind of out of ideas. I was thinking of putting an MSD ignition box in, however I was reading on here that I will see little to nothing by doing so. I also thought about adding one of those "racing chips". Again, I read on this site that these are crap. I am pretty much learning as I go. Every performance upgrade to my car I have performed (except exhaust) so I am not afraid to get my hands dirty. Any thoughts or ideas will be highly appreciated... --------------------  |

I didn't say anything even remotely close to that. I explained WHY resetting the ECU works, but said it's not necessary because it will just reset itself after time. AND I never approved of the dual CAI or electric turbos. notice how I said he would have no more than 120 at the wheels? A near-stock (injen intake) GT makes like 110-115. --------------------  94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |
