AKIRA Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 what else could you do to get more power out of a mpfi other than: air intake spider intake advance timing better exhaust UPDATE!: better cam port matching the exhaust accel superstock coil mallory 8mm plug wires NGK plugs gapped to .45 - .50 what else? also, how much HP do you think this would have and how much of that is from the cam? I don't know the science of cams, can a reground one give me better power while keeping the power-band the same? (I don't want a low-end monster thats slow or a top-end beast that is gutless below 5 grand. Of course I am exagerating, but you get my point. -AK.

Skip Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 cams http://www.deltacam.com/ ask Will hotter ignition w/a bit wider plug gap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justyfied Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 the cylinder heads are where most of the potential power lies. given the same perameters. (cubic inch, compression, fuel) the problem is that most do not have access to a flow bench. i would try port matching the exhaust. you do not want to do this to the intake side as it will create more of a puddling effect. just a suggestion. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svxpert Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 How about a turbo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 non turbo engines already have 9.5:1 compression. Its all about how much air and fuel you can get into the combustion chamber....from there, its kinda a science of compbusting it correctly, and then getting it out of the CombChamb quickly. With some small reground cams, and your list of mods...and a spyder intake, id say 140 is not out of the question. With turbo...money is the limit. I read about these older F1 cars, making like, 1000~1500 HP, with small 4 cyl engines....73psi of boost on 102 octane!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKIRA Posted December 9, 2003 Author Share Posted December 9, 2003 Alright, that seems to be all the mods for the engine right? so, now the exhaust: What would be a good diameter? 2 inches maybe?, I don't want steal from low end very much. what measurement for a camgrind? again, I would like to rty to keep a good balance. -AK.
