I know there are several things to remove to free up horsepower. I have read The Ultimate, but don't see any mention of removing smog pump, gutting cat, etc. Could a knowleagable person brief me on this?? Also, I went open element some time back, but the 14x3 cut the coil wires so I put lil snorkie back on, should I cover the wires w/ something or get a smaller cleaner?

Umm My buddy took off his SMOG PUMP n stuff his TA, Did nothing for improvment in HP. Oh yeah sure he can see his valve cover and he thinks it is great....but.....4.5 hours of work..for that? EH your call. I say no. About the Open Air, I have one on my car didnt do a damn to the wires. I say you just move your wires alittle and tie them up some where.

 

can you name these?? Pics inside.

Theres pics and helpful hints on removing the smog.. Also do a search on what it is for... Basically helps pass emissions and clean carbons of the exhaust... dont quote me.

almost 5 hours!! took me about a hour if so to take all of the smoge stuff off, but guttin the cat takes a little bit of effort tring to take it off and gutting it.

 

Yes 5 hours. guilty as charged

Every lil' bit helps Pork, every lil' bit. nope, i didn't gain any HP, but if i do TEN cheap things like that.. who knows When it comes to the car I don't mind puttin' in the time, just the money occasionally

 

true i dont mind spending time on my car as long as i acomplish something on it and if i would have to i woul do it all over again not becasue of hp but because it looks so much better

 

Hey guys.. what did you do with the hose that goes into the radiator and coolant bypass???
