Birthday coming up.. what to ask for..
Birthday coming up.. what to ask for..
So I have birthday coming up Nov 1st (21st birthday). I would like to ask for something that will make my car faster.
Currently my FC is rebuilt with a street port and full exhaust and a K&N intake and I have all emission equipment removed.. What else can I do to make more power out of the NA without going turbo. nitrous or swapping motors etc.
I was thinking about getting the under drive pulley you can buy from rx7.com
Maybe an ignition mod? MSD or jacobs??
Maybe switching all fluids to Royal purple ( watched some video and the car gained 9hp to the wheels by changing the fluids to royal purple..) << maybe too desperate?
I read something about swapping in a Mustang 5.0L MAF but I have no idea how that would work. Im just trying to get as much as I can get out of it.
Try to keep suggestions 200$ or under.

^lol some one is bitter
since when was a $200 birthday present a handout?
more details on the car would make it easier to make a recommendation
o and please dont take your car out on your 21st, get hammered and attempt to drive home.

are there any of these high performance driving classes near olathe kansas? and is there a certain age you need to be to do them? (i am 16) this is something i would be very interested in and seems like it would be a great experience and something very handy.
Screw the power, better tires + autocrosses or driving school
Your car has more than enough power, it's the driver who needs the work (and yes, that applies to me as well!)

Evolution Driving School or HPDE with a local track with instructors is what I can think of for the price.. Either will require a parents' waiver due to your age, within the rules of your sanctioning body (Evolution uses the SCCA ruleset, and the HPDE will be based on whatever club is hosting the event).
Everyone has had good suggestions so far.. I would like to take high performance driving lessons but I cant think of a track that is close to Beckley WV... I have hard time viewing my car as fast when my buddy has a Audi TT lol..
To my credit I just put a new set of tires on the car.. maybe ask for safety cones> to set up a driving course. How much could 200 dollars worth buy?

Lightweight flywheel.

If you have some sort of stand alone or tuning system a good tune at a good shop would probably be a couple hundred dollars, and they would definitely crank every last bit of HP out of your engine.

Erik - Summit point is only 4 hours away (google maps link)
Not only that, but there happens to be a track day there with ERMA ( http://www.emraracing.org/ ) on Nov 15th (look under "Time Trials."). Apparently, they give you $100 off your first event with them, so this event will be $115. Sooooo, to answer your question:
$115 - Entry fee
$50 - spare brake components to get home if something fails
$35 - lunch/dinner
