What would me 1/4 time be around if i had

KNN air
62mm Throttlebody
Throttle body spacer
Dynomax muffler
And a new catback

Thanks,

Do you think that a new cat that is less restrictive help a pretty good amount?

...dude, you've got a ten-second car.



But really, first, someone needs to know what engine you have. (2.2,2.3,2.4,4.6,etc..

but with those mods, as much as we'd like to think they add up a buncha horses, dont add a lot, orreally shave a whole buncha time off of our 1/4...Ive got a 96 2.2 with a wai, 59mm tb, header, hi flow cat, 2.5 exhaust, hi-po clutch, suspension upgrades, lighter wheels, low-pro tires, and ive gutted the trunk, and my car isnt that fast...faster than a lot of d16 civics in my area, but not fast.

but yes, a hi flow cat will uncork your exhaust a bit more...u can buy a catco for 100 bucks or so, but there are a lot of good companies...

Yeah what car do you have nothing in your registry. Do you have a 1st 2nd or 3rd Gen
2.2, ecotech, 2200, 2.4TC, 3.1, 2.8
TB spacers are not a big help.

There are way to many varibles to tell you what you'll run. For example, a couple years ago I ran a 15.2 at my local track, 3 days later, no changes to the car, ran in Ohio and pulled a best of 15.8, lots of 15.9's and 16.0's. Same car, same driver, different track and different day accounted for almost a full second.

get underdrive pulleys instead of the spacer...about the same price much better for performance...

yes the catback will help but if you do full exhaust instead of all the other suff you have in there you will get a larger gain...

sorry.. I have a 02 cavy ecotec with an 4spd auto.

Im really looking to get headers on it. If i bought the headers would it be really hard to put on in shop class. We have a welder and etc. Or will i need a pipe bender?

...pacesetter. No joke. I had the rksport cermaic piece, and the p.o.s. cracked after a few months of normal driving. And yes, I have both engine mounts. To be honest, i DID bang it up on a few speed bumps, but a crack in it caused extra 02 to hit the upstream 02 sensor, and the car assumed i was running lean, fed it more fuel, and my car ran like sh*t until I bought another header and replaced the o2.
