Until I get a Rippmods, how can I add a few, and safe ponies?

[Gen3cruiser]

Anyone with ideas for my 5sfe?

DIY cold air intake

save money

[90CamryDx3SFE]

Save money, DIY CAI, and stickers. 12 - 75 HP per sticker.

Try headers and exhaust too

[NOKTURNAL]

the cheapest way is higher octane.

bigger spark plug wires, (the stock ones are smaller then a straw)

[Deep]

Higher octane doesn't add any power unless your car is retarding its timing because it has detected some knock. For a 5SFE Camry, you will gain zero HP by running 94.

Same deal with plug wires, if they're overburdened, then upgrade them, if all else is stock, save your money until they need replacement.

He will be just throwing the money away bcs he has to change the headers again once he gets the RIPP SUP . Get a port and polish .... U'll need it

[zoni]

you dont have to change headers with the ripp kit... you can get it without the headers too. the s/c doesnt have anything to do with the headers like a turbo would. it doesnt use exhaust for air intake pressure. it just takes outside air and pressurizes it and throws it into the intake manifold. no interaction with the exhaust. the ripp headers are installed purely for better exhaust flow. if you already have headers, then you wouldnt need the ripp ones...

i second the NOS

i've heard rumors that if you replace your electrical grounding system, it can give you hp, but i don't know how cheap that is. At the worst, it'll free up some power to run bigger subs/amps.

doing the grounding is prolly around a 1-2hp if you're lucky... it made my lights brighter for sure

i DIY-ed my grounding on my gen 4 5-SFE and will post pics and a DIY how to thread very shortly, things have been super busy for me

Cool, I'd like to see that mod in action. Hey street legal brighter lights, can't shake a stick at that .

[CamryWhat?]

Third the NOS!!!!!!!! yeah Watch out tho you might fry your pistons rings or quite possible blow the welds on your intake manifold
