  • In this video, I talk about everything you should do to your car to get the most horsepower and torque from your naturally aspirated car. We go over the benefits of upgrading your intake to a cold air intake, upgrading your stock exhaust to an aftermarket exhaust, upgrading your catalytic converters to upgraded catalytic converters, and performance tuning.

    The funny thing about NA tuning is that (as long as you keep your cams and ECU stock) you only really gain power by increasing the engine's efficiency. Think about it.
    A less restrictive intake, a better flowing cat, less restrictive ... *everything*. You take away restrictions to increase power - by increasing efficiency.
    That means there is going to be a point where you'll be getting both more power AND more miles per gallon than stock! Neat, huh?

      Yeah the richness of OEM tunes is a bit heavy at times for sure. It's a safe and protective strategy. My GDI sees no problem using it's additional cooling and TDC fuel shot like it's water to pour on a raging fire. It's rare I go fast in that car as the savings of the lean burn are pointless otherwise

    All excellent recommendations. I've done two of those mods, new headers and ECU tune. I can't prove it, but the car is much faster.

      Christschool, the "butt dyno" is the most important dyno sheet of them all. Was this on a Gallardo or another car? Because I was going to say, the Gallardo headers are damn near perfection in design.

    I have a 2018 f150 xlt with 5.0 gen 3 coyote. My mods are, ported throttle from 80mm to 88mm, ported oem manifold, throttle spacer, rousch cai, 3.5 inch highflow cats and catback system, oztune omega X tune, flexfuel tuned and i run e85 all the time, supercoils, 14v fuel pump booster, pulstar high perf spark plugs and exhaust wrapped.
    Dyno'd at 584 hp, 690 rwhp and topped at 188 mph while on the dyno.
    I have had it at 146 mph. The torque on all ranges is insane!

    On my 2000 Maxima I did the following modifications: ram air cold air intake, ported throttle body, intake manifold spacer, shorty headers, y-pipe, dual high flow cats, performance exhaust, under drive pulley, and a SAFC fuel controller, HKS ignition, and a bunch of other miscellaneous support modifications and I can say she feels stronger that 222 crank horsepower she started with.

    • @psions555
      @psions555 2 месяца назад

      This is just not plausible as an aftermarket solution. Car manufacturers are almost doing exactly this in a few cases but it only works because of the high voltage system they pair it with. It doesn't give much in terms of BHP but it does help smooth out flat spots in boost and help the turbo spool up quicker. The intake system is not where 48v is useful though. A very small electric motor that is part of the aux belt loop or transmission can provide incredible results. My dads car has a tiny little motor that is near as powerful as the engine its paired with! On a traditional 12v system though a electric motor can be used with old school hydraulic PAS to do the hard work instead of the engine. This doesn't add power but helps prevent some parasitic loss that hydraulic alone causes. Maybe you see why internal combustion is nearing obsolescence because you might as well just use a motor to do it all on its own with no engine.

    You don.t really understand what you are talking. Cold air intake vs stock is useless waste of time. First is cams. Second exhaust, but not piping as you said, but headers that promote good scavenging at right RPM. Third head flow, that mean porting or and valve size. Forth intake manifold and intake runner length and resonance tune. Remap should not be fifth, you will have to do that any way. Volumetric efficiency is not the whole story. You can go above 100% with a lot of valve overlap and too much scavenging but don't make any power.
