[vietn712]

hey guys..i have a friend who has a 97 hatch b18 turbo..i was wondering how much horse will he be pushing w/that kind of setup..i have a 93 mr2 turbo, will it beat it?..i guessing not since the hatch is lighter..but wat mods can i do to boost up my power w/out doing a whole lot of engine mod. i dun want to chage piston and all the complicated stuff..just simple mods thanks..

Since you already have a turbo, more power is just an EBC away.
Since you don't wanna do alot of work, I think this is your best option.

Is his motor stock or built?
If it's built, you could be anywhere from a decent match to completely blown away depending on just how much has been done.

the entire engine is rebuilt piece by piece..he got new piston and everything..sorry if this is a stupid question when ur talking tabout the EBC are u refering to the electronic boost controller..?well i was thinking of changing cams and header..u think that will give me a lil more power, cus stock turbo ia about 225hp right..and how much boost should i set it at so that is ok w/the engine? this car is also a DAILY DRIVER car..occassional races here n there..
