You buy a TII and put on an Exhaust, injectors, fuel computer, FCD, Intake, fuel pump.



You can likely get 50hp out of an N/a if you go all out. Any higher than that is going to have to be radical or Under use of nitrous.

A new turbo and a standalone, with intercooler and exhaust. Upgraded injectors and pump with a FPR. Just a start...

Every upgrade for the FC is a 'bolt on'. These aren't like piston engines where you have to re-enforce the internals, the internals on the rotary don't need to be upgraded, just don't detonate

BUY A TORNADO DUUUUDE!!! and a 35 dry shot of NAAWWWWZZ, dont worry about the fuel, the NAAWWZZ only cools it down, its cool, and get the biggest muffler possible for under $75 that you can find...

and yea stickers help too. and you should look into upgrading your windshield washer fluid squirter things to some that light up and look like dragons or snakes.

Thread cleaned up. If you want to post-***** and give useless answers, feel free to do so in the Lounge. But keep that crap out of the tech forums. Any more pollution and this thread is gone.
