Re: advice

well ya see theres a little thing under your hood called a single cam engine, for starters you should take it out and swap in something with some better potential. sorry for the wise *** answer but thats what needs to go to make thses things faster or you could turbo or supercharge it. just my input, im stil driving mine with the single cam, dont have the money to do a swap.

Re: advice

No need to do a swap to get more horsepower out of a SOHC.

But seriously, Dude, there are books written on this subject. How much do you expect someone to type into a forum.

How about starting by telling us your budget and goals for the car???
