It was late (like 11:00pm on a Thursday) so I didn't have time to look at the cars that showed up but apparently the group noticed me. I pulled out and drove for about 30 seconds, double clutched and sped off to catch a light; I didn't notice the tuner in a blacked out BMW next to me. Apparently he thought I was reving to race him or. . . something. I could have beaten him if I had remembered to bring my vape or eurobeat but thats nether here nor there. . .
My Question:
Is it possible to make this car faster without harming the engine? I come from a family that knows absolutely nothing about cars so I can't ask any of them for help on the subject. Im also the only one in my family with the ability to drive a manual!
Perhaps I could upgrade various engine parts to increase HP?
Pistons perhaps. . .? I don't know enough about cars to find a smart starting point for mods. I want more power but. . .I daily my 86. . .
It wouldn't be as simple as throwing a turbo on my FA20, right? I would need a tune! RIGHHHHT!?
How would you guys progress through mod upgrades?
Whatever information you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated!
That BMW guy will RUE the day he messed with THIS GUY! ---->  |
Welcome! Best thing to do is find a local autocross, see how slow (or fast you are). You will soon realize your first mod after driver-mods should be rubber. RE71Rs is what you get... once you can handle an frs on those around a tight track, then start thinking about power... You might not want to anymore though.
