...If the compressor outlet is vented to atmosphere.

Turtle, are you looking for a list of parts to compare N/A mods vs. a Turbo kit?

I think just meant NA, not turbo?

Well, simple things make quite a difference for our cars.

Intake: Minnam since they're here and they sponsor us

Filter: Up to you, Greddy, K&N, HKS, Blitz, Apex'i, not much of a difference I think

Fuel computer: Fields, Apex'i, you've seen my dyno results

Exhaust: again, whatever you like, Apex'i, HKS, 5zigen, Blitz, Borla, Stromung, etc...

Underpulley: Minnam told me they dyno'd a hp gain of about 8-9hp, Orbiter has it on his car

Now to the stuff that will make your car run better, but probably not faster

Shortshifter: I wish I can get one..hahaha

Synthetic motor oil: Redline, Torco, Motul, Royal Purple, etc...

New sparkplugs/sparkplug wires: probably run smoother

Anything else guys? I'm sure I'm forgetting some stuff...but I think we can only go so far with NA...

Borla header. I've asked Minnam. Trust it or not, they said they can custom make the header and midpipe for us.

He means non-turbo......

Does the header really help? It might with all the piping, but the low end will suffer big time.......
Any idea??

I think he means upgraded the motor in n/a stages... just like GT... you know, like stage 1, 2, 3...

then again... I could be wrong...

Sorry for the rumors from Minnam. But for N/A, I think the best modification will be a new set of cams, and together with a fuel ignition controller. I'm still waiting for the cams to come out .

I have no idea of what's on the GT2 NA modification. But I guess the I/E/H and pulleys should be considered as stage I. Cams and other internal mods (such as turbo heads) maybe stage 2 (?).

Hey guys, any other option for engine mods?
