What would you expect the gains to be for a z tube, pop-charger, and 1/2'' isothermal plenum spacer? What other low budget mods would you recommend, without losing the exotic exhaust sound?

 

i have seen a gain of 15 horses to the wheel from the 1/2" isothermal spacer.. best mod for ur buck...

 

less then 15

 

What are some cheap and easy DIY mods that I can get to bring me close to 300hp? CAI instead of popcharger? Any suggestions are appreciated, thnx.

 

It's not going to happen. You're looking for....... say 60hp from bolt ons???? Sorry. You should buy Noz if you're looking for cheap HP. My $.02

 

he's only looking for 20hp, not 60, lmao. basic math eludes u i see.

 

WOW you're quick to talk *** clown!!!! If you're talking CRANK yeah!!! But real HP is measured at the wheels................ then how much IDIOT!!! Brain in gear before putting mouth in motion!!!! Some peoples pets!!!! Geezzzzz

 

Calm down little man. If you go back and re-read the original threads "in context", it was plain to me the OP was in fact talking about crank hp.

One might question if the OP knows what the difference between rwhp and crank is, however...

 

then he would have said rwhp, not hp.

basic english pattern recognition also eludes you i see

 

I am talking about crank horsepower!!. I just want to get it up the power of the 05-06 6mt G's. Thats why I want crank. So, what do I need to get that??

 

First of all........... yeah plenum,headers, high flow cats and a nice sounding exhaust and you're good to go!!!!!!



Are you not wearing your helmet again??? You fell down and went boom didn't you.

 

On your car the 5/16 or 1/2 spacer should give you a solid 10 HP plus. Z-tube is worth maybe 1 - 3 HP then maybe a set of high flow cat's 2 - 5 HP gain. A good y-pipe setup should get you right there at 300 @ crankshaft.
Happy modding

 

Yeah, but I don't want to change the sound of the exhaust. I love the stock sound! Is there anything in those last two posts that doesn't change the sound of the exhuast.

Also, are headers really hard to install?

Finally, Which intake has the most gain? Pop Charger, Certain CAI??

Thanks everyone, please help me out!

 

The hi-flow cats and y-pipe will not change the sound much. If anything you will be way more happy with the sound. Headers? Not hard to install at all, Just takes time.

 

Ztube, Popcharger and the spacer will probably only give you about 10-12 HP at the crank.
