I am totally new to this car, it is actually my fiance's but I want to beef up the power a bit. What mods would you guys recommend and how much HP do you think it would add? I am willing to go just short of supercharging or turbocharging. I was thinking some kind of K&N cold air induction, new header, and exhaust. Any advice or thoughts on what kind of power this would make/add? Thanks for your help, Rob

A couple of good advice are weight reduction and breathing. Here is what I have in my 1.6EL (mods only) AEM CAI Apex WS cat-back exhaust Field V-SFC <- Optional CraneCam 8.5mm SP wire kgmm DR 21 1.6" drop on 4 corners Neuspeed Upper Strut bar KYB adjustable rear shocks Brembo X-drilled roters KVR semi-met brake pads Toyo Proxies T1-S tires Here is what's coming: Landspeed PowerCore header A set of 4 Racing Hart 15" (<12lbs) Handling is also important. If you have more money, invest on a Zex billet cam... very good review. It adds 11whp during mid range and like crazy 5 lbs/ft of torque. You can forget about the Field, just all the mods done and have some to custom tune the ECU, remove the rev limiter and change all the ignition timing and vtec x-over. Cheaper this way. With my current mods right now, I have added almost 20whp. I have some dyno graphs to prove that. AEM gives at least 10whp by itself. Once I have the header next year, maybe I can break into 120whp (a little closer to an SIR). :) Regards, Karson
