Performance Modification Suggestions

Postby matt2424 » Wed Oct 19, 2011 2:42 pm

Hey, I currently own an 05 NC and i am very interested in looking into some basic performance modifications for it. Im not working to any specific budget at the moment, more just looking for suggestions from people as to what they have done, and what products work / what the end result was. I understand the NC engine is known to be difficult to get power out of, but any ideas? Basically just want good bang for my buck,

Thanks,

Matt

Bucket seats and coilovers. Makes your car feel "fast" ~ and looks fast aswell.
Otherwise supercharge it. But that's quite expensive! ( cosworth )

Full exhaust, AEM intake and an aftermarket ECU or piggy back and you may see around 200HP at the motor.
