looking to build a screemer this winter. wondering whats the best you can do for a 2.0 , whithout spending enough to acually buy another car. right know the set up i have know is fast , faster than a well running fuel stock injected 2.0. and it has 94's , i'm told not to go bigger than 96's, because of heat, and port and pollishing can make a big increase. well anyway what are some things i can do and where do i get the upgrades.

was the SDS tuned with a WB02??


Mike,

I hope this doesn't sound like I'm busting your balls but, I can't accept that.

I think a better question is was it tuned with all the tools available. I don't bet very often. The last time I was in Vegas I didn't make 1 bet but, I would bet that any car tuned on the street with a WBO2 leaves hp that can be found on a dyno. Same can be said for emissions and mileage. I've tuned a bunch now with the wideband on the street but if there isn't more in my engine I'd be really surprised. All you can do is pick a A/F ratio to shoot for and 12.5 might not be as good as 12.3 for horsepower for a given engine. The only way you'll know is measure it and then reproduce it.

Ghost, find out the particulars of your engine and then look into it. Then take most of what you've read here and chuck it. Talk to Jake cause if you are a serious customer he'll help you out. When you get as much info as you can then decide.
