Basic mods for a 2.0 to reach 180hp

[Irishman]

hey guy i'm from sherbrooke and i got a 2003 protege es 2.0

i have a AEM intake and a remus exhaust on it, my question is....

i want to reach 180 hp from my motor, naturally aspirated, and i also heard about FS-ZE parts from japan,

so.... WHAT SHOULD BE THE NEXT STEP TO REACH THAT 180HP RANGE???

you can email me at sebas_umugabo@hotmail.com

thanks..

Check out the N/A section. You'll be lucky to make 130whp.

and to get that 130whp you're probably gonna spend close to (or more than) the cost of a turbo kit.

Custom cams, cam gears, port & polished intake manifold, header, full catless exhaust

that'll be a start...

mmmm...sounds pointless

Get an OBX header. Nice gains.

I think you could hit 140-150 whp (~170 crank) for about 1500-2000 dollars (and a lot of DIY work). At least I'm going to try

mods: intake + header + catback + high flow cat + cams + engine management
dollars: 50 + 200 + 300 + 200 + 200 + 600(to 1200)

The installing cams myself though kind of scares me.

I think Twilight is just some engine management away from 140-150 whp.

P.S.
Are we supposed know where Sherbrooke is?

Turbo people are just bitter because we have bigger penises.

Essentially we are all trying to make our penises bigger by making our cars faster.

NA = Stretching, Weights, Exercising, etc. Aka. A lot of work.
Turbo = One pill. Easy results.

I second this.

no one said higher compression pistons?

for NA, read up in the NA forum.. your best bet is to start out with freeing what power you have with a FULL catback and hiflow cat and a good header...then you can research cams and UDP, etc...
