how can i break the 300 hp level without tearing down my engine?...

hmm...VVT, really...like VTEC for honda, MIVEC for mitsu, and vvt-i or whatever toyota calls it?...one of the generations of SR20 engines that nissan used to produce came with that on the intake side but people just remove it with aftermarket cams...i need to test drive someones 2nd gen...anyone out there live near here with a 2nd gen?...i'm not going to hurt her....
 
you need what this guy has to get into the 300HP range.

oh thats awesome, i bet the scoop and wing together are good for about 250 extra horses...but the 2nd gen's have that much extra?...so an SCT Xcal-2, CAI intake, and exhaust should put me right around the goal level?...am i going to need a tuner and a dyno for that too?...

Gen I (PRE 2003) 252 HP / 261 FT. LB. OF TORQUE

GEN II (2003 & UP) 280 HP / 286 FT. LB. OF TORQUE

Its all in the intake manifold.....the only difference between the two horsepower wise is that the GEN II have a more mustang designed intake manifold compared to the GEN I's thunderbird style intake....and we all know who wins out of that battle.....the MUSTANG
 
really, i just read in another thread that its more complicated than just swapping the intake manifold...something about the combination of VVT, and intake plubimng being routed another way, and less restrictive exhaust...then again those can be accomplished rather easy minus the VVT...but, thanks for the input...as long as its helpful...and this one is logical so i dont see why not...thanks

also, i am defintely not going to start playing with parameters on a tune...going to just pay someone to do it right...

Do not worry about this. We do not give our customers access to any dangerous parameters. With all the curious people out there that would be a disaster waiting to happen. Only access to user preference based things is given; similar to what gcwimmer said in his last post.
 
ok, so a CAI, full exhaust, andSCT Xcal2 should get me to 300 hp...is this correct? and are the factory baseline numbers at the wheels or at the crank?...AND I REALLY NEED THAT OE FRONT DOOR SPEAKER...I AM NOT ASKING SOMEONE TO JUST GIVE IT TO ME...UNLESS THEY JUST FELT SO GENEROUS AS TO DO THIS...WHICH WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED...BUT REGARDLESS, I AM IN DIRE NEED OF THIS SPEAKER!!!

As I said in post #5, you should come close to 300 but I doubt you will hit it with just those mods.

All factory baseline numbers for all vehicles are always at the crank. Rear wheel measurements are usually reserved for use people who race because we want to know how much usable power we are putting to the ground.
 
I have my set of stock front speakers. I don't know what they go for. But you can buy a pair of directed audio 5x7's for like 40 bucks

I thought this was addressed on another posting. The intake manifold has little to do with the difference in power. It's the VVT... Where did you get that from anyway?
 
i dont know where that came from, but yeah, just like the VTEC's, its all in the cams...but i am just wanting an OE front speaker, i am not looking for aftermarket because i dont have the $$$ for a full system and i dont want to half ass it, so i just want to replace the fluttering one...are they in good shape?...
