how much horsepower can increase by going into turbo within my budget ?
thankx..
for your budget, i suggest u spend the $ on strengthening the car handling & replacing wear & tear. Its almost impossible to get a reliable bolt-on turbo set-up with that kind of budget unless u get super lucky from 2nd hand set-ups fr WTS forum.
thank for ur suggestion ..
i already replace wear n tear, overhual my engine etc..
hi bros, may i ask, which workshop can we replace wear and tear?
for eg the wires in my engine bay like 'harden' abit and some clips like the throttle body sensor is abit broken, causing it to fall off
at times and causing the car to jerk.

pls advise, thanks!

apart from mods and upgrades,

should we also include a list of maintenance, wear&tear ?

i suppose almost all of us have wear&tear issues in terms of bushings, arms, steering rack and stuffs

anyone ?

maybe can start by listing in categories so we can give some advise on the wear & tear which we have done.

I own a D17A engine. If I mod to CAI, header to 4-2-1, punch thru CAT n ops muffler with 60mm throttle body, will I be able to gain something like better pick up? I found my pick up a bit slack...

like the earlier bro, dun waste $ on a D17A. Use the $ to lighten yr car will be better, ie. CF bonnet, CF boot, forge rims etc.

I feel Power fc is best for EKs. I use that for my EK4 and its direct plug & play. With datalogic tool u can open up more functions then what u have on the commander.
