Putting a big *** racing wing and a fart can will easily get you like 30hp. Just look at all the ricers doing it.



btw: read the license plate ^

being serious in a not so thread the 160 t-stat not the best idea. The engines design is to run hotter to burn off some carbon from settling which in time actually reduces power due to carbon build up in areas like the intake. Tried the 160 t-stat on my previous ride a 2001 extreme with a powerdyne sc and this did happen. Also to cold t-stat will set engine codes. Also happened. Says something like engine never gets into correct operating temperature.

The absolute best thing for your car (found on eBay of course) is a turbo whistler you clamp on your exhaust tip, so you get the BOV sound... 40hp gains *Depending on your current setup*
