You might want to check if your 5th and 6th ports are opening up as well.

Your car has no power because it's slow.

LOL always so full of knowledge...



Indeed check for 5th and 6th ports opening up, this allows power at higher RPMS. I always just kept mine open at all times...lost low end but had great power in higher RPMS which mattered most since my hard driving never had me below 4 grand.

Invest in a nice header and exhaust setup and aftermarket air filter. Your car will wake up for sure.
