But even if you have no mods, tuning still works because the factory tuning is pig rich. So it's still worthwhile getting tuning even if you don't have any other mods.

With my cut out open I gained 12RWHP and 23RWTQ N/A, and 28RWHP and 56RWTQ on the bottle.



Cut-out is a great mod for the money, but I would spend the extra money to get an electric cut-out, you'll be a lot happier with it.

I would suggest a cutout and some lower control arms.

Motor, this is what I would do:

1.6 Roller rockers, can get the aluminum proform 1.6 roller rockers off ebay for 159.99.

Madz28 Tune for $80. Orrrrrr 80 bucks for a cable or build your own for 30 bucks and order his unlimited e-mail tune for $60. Tuner cat is free for 30 days, download the trial and have someone hook you up with the definiition file. Either way thats roughly $90 bucks, leaves you with about $40 left over and you gain about 30 rwhp from both applications.



I agree, But i would go motor. I have mac midlength and i noticed a big diffrence. Im tuned now with a cam and looking for more power
