I want more power.

whats going on guys im new here so im trying to find my way around. I am 16 and just bought my 92 camaro rs. its a 305 tbi and a 5 speed car. the car has edelbrock headers, flomaster, msd 6 a, stage 2 chip, but i want more out of the 305. i just put an edelbrock air cleaner set up on which made it breath so much better and made a huge difference, and the car rips for what it is i blew the doors off of my buddys 87 z and his is a 305 carberated. but what do u guys have in mind that i can make my 305 a little more peppy? on a low budget lol help me out a little it would be greatly appreciated.

Re: I want more power.

Robertfrank, it sounds like you know your car. I have a measly 305 also... I know it has potential, but how much? Can this car be kinda quick on the track? How much power can a mouse motor like this have with those kinda mods? I have just bought my car and have done no mods to it. Though I have plans to do so. Wouldnt it be cheaper to step up the motor?

This thread will show you the potential the 305 has:

Re: I want more power.

hahahaha this is true. one thing you cannot get enough of. would 4 11s be a little too much for my car? 305 with a t5. the only thing i am worried about is highway driving
