How do i get more power out of my ENR34

[ENRR34]

Im just starting out as a mechanic so im very new to modifying cars but i have a Enr34 and im looking to get more power out of it without adding a turbo

could someone suggest some modifications to it that could help it

i already have a catback straight pipe and hks cold air intake

Basically, you don't.

Of course it is possible to get 10% more out of an NA car, but it is an expensive path. From there for sure you can get 50% if you go nuts with cams, headwork, capacity for....very expensive.

Or you put a turbo on it an run 50% more for the same ballpark cost as the 10% more NA mods.

If your a young fella on your P's, I'd say the sensible option is to upgrade other areas of the car, tyres, suspension, brakes etc.... And if your interested, start doing track days and improving as a driver. 

Once off your P's, its engine swap time (or turbo time, gearbox upgrade time, etc). 

Probably not what you wanted to hear though, sorry. 

Umm but to answer your question, your only option that makes sense is to add spray. Not a very sensible option, one of those if you have to ask, its probably not for you.

Put a turbo on it

Nitrous

Put a V8 in it. 

 

Honestly, bolt a turbo on it. Or V8 turbo, yeah baby.

If I was to try fit a turbo kit on it would it be worth it, could the NA engine block be able to handle it and is it an affordable ish option?

I wouldn't be worried about the engine, I'd be concerned for your gearbox.

Barra swap, ZF8HP box.

Will be cheaper in the end.

No turbo? 

well

Stroker crank, pistons rods, head work, high comp, valve spring retainer cams, os88 run it on nitro methane, get roll bar, get it teched run a chute and skinnies on the front wheels, obligatory green neon under the car

You'll still get chopped by a toothless crackhead with a catless stg1 barra xr6 at the lights but at least you never put a turbo on it

In all seriousness as someone above mentioned, barrage it with a ZF8hp when funds allow, it will be more fun and cheaper in the long run
