I noticed when I had a 74 carrera 2.7 that at about 1/4 tank I'd get more H.P.'s and now that I have a 75 1.8 914 I get the same thing way better throttle response??? I doubt it's due to weight...any ideas?

Let's face it. There are no quick fixes to mileage or performance. You have to use the gas magnets if you want significant increases. Word! (after I made a little spelling correction) I used one of those turbo devices in my intake once and my stocks went up by 70% I am now a believer. I religiously watch late night and day-time cable to find out the latest innovations. Billy Blanks is a God to me... I hear the latest is to rub pickle juice on your tires to get more miles out of them. It is an incredible use for something that goes to the sink in most cases. The tire companies don't want you to know that. In fact they will probably buy this website and shut it down to keep this information under wraps...

Please make him stop. As for the pickle juice on the tires, I always save my spare change to purchase high-grade Dill Pickle juice, the best there is!! I call it my Dill Dough... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I love it... It is just so gratifying to me to see a creative mind go to waste. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Reminded me of one of the classics: What a waste it is to lose one's mind. Or not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that is. -- Vice President Dan Quayle winning friends while speaking to the United Negro College Fund, 5/9/89. Can't go wrong with the Quaylemeister. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) |
