Performance Question
By the end of october, i should be just about done w/ the look of my car, external and internal, now my question is this? How can I make my car faster? I dont know if I want to go w/ a turbo or not but I probably will in the future. I want my cars HP to be somewhere inbetween 280 and 325ish. What mods would I need to do to get it there? And if anyone has done this...how much did it cost you? Oh and I dont want this achieved by nitrous. Thanks.

Oh and i want to keep the engine I have if possible. Please none of that "if you have the time and money deal"...give me real responses.
Thanks Hootie..i already figured those things. What kind of intake works best w/ our cars? I mean is there a difference between an AEM and a Injen? I have read on here that the weaponR intakes are a joke...
Headers from SR? which ones the 4-2-1s or the
4-1s?
And the exhaust, I just bought the APEXI N1 so i would like to make that work...who could i get the rest of the piping from? should I do that order one from a manufacturer or should i do this custom? does it really make a whole lot of difference?
Thanks..just learnin tongue.gif

Nitrous Without it you're not going to hit 200hp without a turbo(at least not with a street-drivable setup). Search the engine forum on nitrous and you'll find more topics than you will know what to do with.
Search on turbo and you'll find more. There are a lot of topics--try searching on 'turbo required' for lists people have done up with required mods and costs for turbo options.

yeah you definately should have done a search, but i wont get mad bc i ask dumb questions and hijack threads all night long, go with what hootie said, intake/header/exhaust. and the exhaust should be the whole system. we talkin cat-back newbie! try speedstate.com they sell a nice cat-back set up for tiburons and i hear nothing but compliments about the system. but as for headers, it depends on what type of car you drive, transmission wise. 4-1 headers are better for manuals and 4-2-1 headers are better for autotragics. depends on where you want the power at as well, the type of header affects torgue, i believe, 4-1 is for high end torque and 4-2-1 is for low end torque. or the other way around i forget, no matter what i say, still try a search.
i personally am going for the 4-1 header, in fact i have a post in the engine forum asking a question about them, it is in fact a dumb Q, and here i am hijacking this thread now, im so useless!
best bang for the buck not including nitrous and turbo would be a performance chip. thousand bucks will get you double digits of a bonus in hp.
its on my list that i already sent to santa
torque is just as important as hp, dont forget that as well!

Honestly, unless you go forced induction, you won't be able to get that much hp while in N/A and without an engine swap of some sort. To be realistic, you'll probably spend A TON on getting your car to 210hp in the N/A route(if thats EVEN possible). I think Red's tired of explaining N/A tuning so I guess I had to make it short and save his time so he can go about getting his monster up and running.

Dear VerdeShark98:
There is no "performance chip" for your Tiburon.
Another suggestion to up the horse power would be cams.
Seriously though, I don't think you will be able to hit those numbers without massive amounts of cash or forced induction.

I am planning on putting a turbo on it at some point. Other than alpine does anyone make a full turbo kit that will get me near that mark. I would like to atleast double stock. Does anyone already have a whole setup? I know some of you do. What are your 1/4 times and what do you have in it?
