    200whp is sadly more towards a fully rebuilt stroker m20 than just a few bolt-ons. look at the engine swaps in the 24v section and M30 & other swaps section.

          I'd like to at least bring it up to around 200HP
          You can chip your car or can turbo it if you want.:up: Not alot of people like turbo, because it is feels like your head is glued to the back of your seat. Then you can just put a biger motor in your car. This car will be the love of your life and also a money pit, just like most gfs

            arent they up there?

              How much HP can a chip gain you and how hard are they to install?
              Yeah I might swap someday. I;m not sure if i could afford it or if im skilled enough to complete it

                have you picked the car up yet?

                Turbo is roughly $3k on the cheap side

                  Chips for our primitive cars yield quite a bit of gain. Its about 20+ crank hp if Im not mistaken.

                  Chip, diff, exhaust are really the mods that you will feel. ESPECIALLY if you do them all at once.

                    Yeah I figured it was around there. No I haven't picked it up yet. I am waiting for the owner to obtain the title. Should be very soon!

                        4.10 L/S diff if you have an i, and 3.73 L/S if you have an eta. I would do custom or a Mark D chip, or any of the other ones that may be suggested here if others can put in their input, I did SUpersprint, but if I had to do it all over again, Id get a Magnaflow or something custom its cheaper, you can customise it, and it yields similar results.

                                :bow:chips are not hard at all. You just have to order the right chip and then not bend any of the pins as you put it in, aslo dont forget to put it in the right way. You might fuck everything up if spin it around. But you can get about 24hp or more. Just got to get the right chip.:up:
