  • Highend Power???

    Without NOS or Turboing, what can I use to get some more highend power without sacrificing lowend tourque? I'm sick of not beingable to go at it from rolls. Also does our cars weight really slow us down that much to the point where a Civic SI can beat us?

    My loudmouth gave me a noticable gain in top end and I didn't lose torque. The torque is just at a higher rpm because now instead of spinning off the bat I spin at 3k.

        Yes Civic SI's CAN beat us...and we can beat them. They are good competition for our cars. Drivers race as they say ;)

            [img]graemlins/naughty.gif[/img] A cam will do what you just said. It will move your power band. Sometimes, from lower(stock) to mid wont hurt your lower end. But thats about it. My cam, didnt hurt my lower end at all.

              Gears would help roll-on and acceleration across the rev range, especially if you've got 3.08 or 3.23

                Look into headers, they really seem to wake the 3.8's up from a roll. They're not too pricey either.
