? magnecor wires/ larger throtle body 850 1994

posted by  someone claiming to be andrew on  Sat Mar 31 15:42 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I presently have a IPD ECU, a K&N filter, full exhaust 2.5 inches plus down pipe. If the turbo goes I'll replace it with a slightly larger one. I'm thinking about purchasing Magnecore wires and possible a larger throttle body. Is it worth the money outputalso I may get the intake and exhaust honed. Is any of this worth the money.

The wires are a good upgrade when you need new ones. I would wait till you need new ones though. As for the throttle body, it may be the only way for you to get more Hp easily. Its rough when 250ish only gets you 4 more hp but its something. I might look into a open element filter before I did anything else. As for porting and polishing I would not do it till you need an engine reuild. Just my opinions though.
