Ok... i been doing alot of researching, and i found a few things that's interesting. So far, the free mods i found are removing power steering, remove a/c, remove air pump, tb mod, and that's about it. anything else??? oh yeah, of course stuff like egr and stuff like that, but on the other hand.... how do you all pass emission without egr?? i found a page full of free mods for n/a but not for turbo, someone please help me out! thanks!!

p.s. : is there any page that shows exactly how tb mod is done??? thanks!

I've heard of the DSM guys crushing their BOVs for more boost, that's a free mod, but I don't know if it's effective on the FC or not, I just use a cheap boost controller that cost me $35..

If you remove the airpump your cats will clogg fast and your car will slow and run like ****, Keep it there untill you get rid of the cats

The pan under the car is to direct air, dont remove it.

A good mod is removing all the vacume nest under the uim, Its not free, just the cost of some vacume hose, but its cheap enough.

Also a down pipe and an intake woulld greatly improve performance, ALot, But if you wanna do it free, just take off the cats and take a hammer and somthing long and knock the **** out of the inside of the cats, Less back pressure, more boost, GO FASTER!

You can only crush metal BOV's.

Look under the car and you'll see why that isn't true. There is a Y pipe.

but each pipe only puts out half the total exhaust right.. the "y" splits it in half give or take a few %.

half if half no matter what.
