From what I'm reading, you are expecting to see gains from "all motor" stuff. If you are expecting this to work like a Honda with bolt on performance mods, you are gravely mistaken. Intakes, headers, exhaust, wires, spark plugs... Don't expect more than maybe 5hp gain in the end. If you want to beef up the motor internals, like pistons, cams, injectors, etc, you will see some gains, as mentioned before with the cam regrind, but nothing mind blowing.
You said you had a 94. A 94 what, ST? GT? GT4??? If your goal is power, do your research and start looking at a turbo or a swap (3s or V6). That's really the only way you are going to get anything significant. -------------------- |
