fully tuning the I4

[shaneb]

ok i did a search and couldn't find anything (i could have missed it but)

what is all needed, etc... to fully tune the 8g I4, i'm talking everything (non turbo), not a tune up.

thanks

what are you tryna tune?? cam gears? some kinda piggy back computer? what? can't really tune anything if there isn't anything to adjust.

[shaneb]

the whole engine, maybe i should have refrased.

what all would need to be done to have a hop up the engine in, other words what all would i have to do to the engine to make her run like a racer (so to speak).

that really depends on how much you want to spend and what kinda power you want to achieve. if you look through the forums you can see your different options. you say non turbo so how about a supercharger or nitrous.

i kinda want to keep it n/a

i looked before, but i'll take another look again.

Meh truly making an NA car fast is just as expensive as turboing it or supercharging it.

-First you need to start with the basics. Intake/header/exhaust.
-Then may up to an RPW Cam and cam gear(if you can get ahold of them).
-Or do the Evo headswap
-If your auto, that has to go, do the 5spd swap
-Next is to do headwork, oversized valves, porting, 5angle valve job, ect
-Next rewire your fuel pump, install an FPR and SAFC
-Dyno tune see what your putting down and be disappointed because you would have gotten much more with a basic turbo...Priceless

haha, maybe not, but NA mods require more work. Lots of headwork, expensive camshaft and gears, ect.
