Going Faster in a Non-Turbo Car



The non-turbo cars don’t have quite the untapped performance potential of the turbo cars, but despair not! There are some enhancements you non-turbo owners can make.

First, the intake system on non-turbo cars can benefit from some opening up – a low-restriction air filter is the way to go.

The non-turbo power plant also benefits from exhaust work. The exhaust manifold can be replaced by a header, which is a tubular exhaust collector that improves exhaust flow. On the back end of the car, a low-restriction exhaust system will also add power.

For a real horsepower boost, nitrous oxide is the answer. It can be temperamental, but nothing adds instant power like a 75-horsepower “shot” of N2O. Call us for details.
