Thanks again for that, lsj. Its great to see you support us 2.2 guys.
he said 25, not 30.


lol your on crack. an intake gives you like 8 hp at the wheels and exhaust gives you like 12. your looking at like 20 max. to the wheels.
again, he said 25, being 5 off is not bad for a rough guess. because i'm sure you can compute in your head exactly what kind of gain you'll get with any performance part, at varying elevations and temperatures, right?

who's on crack now?

If you're looking for some resonable gains go for the Electric SuperCharger. With a few car batteries it can move your engine to about 100kw stronger (134 HP).

Here's a pic of my setup. Even Michael J Fox and Christopher Llyod couldn't catch me.
