I've got a '84 SE and I have Racing beat lowering springs and muffler, Accel super coils, NGK spark plugs and wires I'm looking foreward to some more upgrades and would like to know how much of a difference am I going to get so I know in what order to do them.

So could anyone with the following items reply back and say how much of a difference it made.

Racing beat header and presilenser
Lightweight flywheel (aluminum or lightweight steel)
Racing beat sway bars (front and rear)
Strut tower braces (front and rear)

Because explaining how much of a difference is pretty hard to do, lets do this. 1-10, 10 being a very big differnence..

Thank you.

 

Header system-10 for best hp increase. Flywheel-10 for reduction of rotaional mass
to better apply hp to rear wheels. Sway bars, 5. the se suspension is set up pretty good, the bars will show a increase in handling though. Cant comment on the strut tower braces, have not used, better suited for autocross i would believe.
Hope this helps, by the way i own a 84 se. rx7doctor

 

Header and presilenser- 9
Lightweight Flywheel - 4
Sway Bars- 7
Tower Bracer- 8


You can't go wrong with RB exhaust, hands down the best. The flywheel will make you pick up RPMs quicker, but you'll lose low end torque, especially with the aluminum. Go with the steel if this is a street car. Sway bars will help out with body roll a good bit. Braces will stiffen the car a tremendous amount, and will make the car so much easier to drive. Ultra responsive, and you can tell when you're right at the limit.

 

lovintha7 is correct about using a steel flywheel, stay away from the aluminum for street usage. Will cause dying problems when coming to a stop. rx7doctor
