960 Engine HP Mod Questions

posted by  someone claiming to be jimbo on  Fri Nov 21 05:10 CST 2003 [RELATED]

As the other poster mentioned, there do not seem to be very many options for this engine.
However, I have found a place that claims to be able to chip the 960:

I have gotten a quote of about a 10% increase in hp/torque. Price is $400, so I'm still deciding if it's worth it. You can try tracking down a local distributer and getting in touch with them.
Also, a synthetic oil conversion supposedly gets you about 1-2% more power. Maybe make a ram-air type mod for better breathing as well.
Overall there are few options compared to the 8 series, but there are always a few things you can do.
Post whatever you decide to do! Us 960 owners would be interested.
