Hey guys I was wondering If there was a way squeeze another 100HP out of my 86 325es without having to get a turbo or engine swapping.

No announcement yet.
Can I add 100hp with no forced induction?

Hahaha. Good question but there is absolutely no way of that. Like 0% chance. You can probably spend a few thousand bucks and maybe get 20 hp if you're really lucky. Or spend a few thousand bucks and get a cheap turbo kit.2016 F-150

Yes it is very possible. A well built 2.9L M20 with ITB's can do it on pump gas.
A fully built 2.9L M20 on race gas, ITB's and a crapload of other stuff has done 293whp in race tune, 200hp+ over your B27..
