Re: Non-Turbo engine improvements?? ALL 91

Electric fan conversion. Takes weight off the motor. Run 2.25" pipe from the cat back to a single Turbo rear muffler. K&N filter. Open up the airbox.(Gut it.)After you spend time and money on all that you will still be driving a 114H.P. brick that weighs a ton and a half. Been there done that. There are only three options. (1)Sell it and buy a Turbo.(2) Install a CAM and gear. (3)Be happy with what you have. Tell the guy that suggested you disconnect the o2 sensor to take a flying leap! You want a new o2 sensor if anything. That's how the ECU regulates air to fuel mix.

Forget the cone, just gut the airbox and leave the snorkle off. Keep it in the trunk though, in case you find yourself having to cross flooded roads.
