what mods should i make to my N/A ? dont want heaps of power just a little bit more and before you say just get a TT i just want my N/A cheaper to keep on the road stupid carbon tax
Apart from general maintenance and ensuring the car is running well, I would probably say wheels, rubber and suspension.
I had the voltage stabilizer and she worked awesome! Then I added a Vulcan intake atomizer and it was like I was in a time warp bro.
As for the original question though, don't bother with extractors or any of that shit.....the fastest NA's i've been in don't use them including my own. Catback, Pod, NIStune and a good clutch is what i would do. Fairly confident mine could hit the 13 second mark with a NIStune and set of Mickey Thompsons.
Im in a similar boat, im in Queensland and on my p's so turbo and nitrous are not an option. What could i do to squeeze a little more from my n/a,
NOS is on the cards for me and Dw about the cops only against the law if.you get caught just pick when to hit the little red button
haha sounds like a good idea, DONT THINK MY ENGINE WOULD HANDLE IT, cant even handle the compression it has at the moment it just lost it all
Thats because no-one seriously mods the VG30DE because the TT is a more efficient/cheaper way. If your deadset on staying with the NA, then you have to consider extractors at some point. Increase the compression, longer duration cams, tight valve train, increase the RPM, lighten the internals, and your going to be lucky to hit 300hp. It'll sound good though.
Screw performance mods on an NA. Make it go BETTER instead of FASTER. *Replace all of your connectors *Establish the condition of your sensors- 02's, CTS, PTU and replace as necessary *Major service, plus extras- seals, gaskets, hoses *Plenum pull and deletes *Extra deletes- PRVR, AIV's, EGR *Check your entire suspension- Replace rubbers, overhaul coilovers (even if just new KYB Shocks and springs) *Check your brakes. Get rotors machined if needed and new pads. *Get a wheel alignment, even if you think it drives okay. *Spend 2 SOLID days getting rid of all rattles. Adjust your hatch and door catches. Check all exhaust hangers. Find every single niggling rattle or squeak and fix it. The above is just the tip of the iceberg. Some may apply, others might not have been mentioned. All the slightly overlooked bits eventually add up and will ultimately affect your driving experience. Even as a 20 year old car, it doesnt take that much to achieve the solid "thud" when you close the door and limited cabin noise.
+1 Advance timing, 98 RON, UDP, full 3" exhaust, high-flow cats, pod filter, extractors, tune, port your heads, lightweight rims, reduce weight. Random sample of what you could do.
