maybe just have your head machined down a little (it's gonna need to be done anyway when you take your head off) to raise your compression ratio a little.
if you're just looking for 20hp above stock, a CAI, headers, and exhaust should get you at least 10-15 of that, then just a piggyback like an SAFC II tuned on a dyno should give another 5-10. those things alone would reach your goal. Because you have oversized pistons and you wanted to port match your head, I thought you were going all out with it. 20 hp should be pretty easy to attain though. A stage 1 clutch and lightweight flywheel makes the car more fun to drive too. you could also get some kirkosaurus polyurethane motor mounts. -------------------- ![]() 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 |
