First of all, is it possible without going crazy on the motor and spending huge $$$? I've been searching the board here and can't find the answers to the questions in my head. If I've missed something please post a link.
What I'd like to do is bump up my hp a little, 5-10 would be acceptable. Just to get close to what a 2.0 can deliver and still retain the original L-jet FI. I think the 1.8's got cheated when a 1.7 has better numbers. I need heat up here so headers are out. Not looking to spend too much dough. I'm not interested in carbs or a full-on Raby kit either. I have a 911 for when I need to feel big torque. Would a different cam help? Maybe different P&C's with some head work, or an increase in c/r? Open to suggestions. Thanks. |
