Power?

[Chrisxn]

I have a 1.0 k11..And I want more power outta it!!!


I cnsidered an engine conversion, but I need my car! so I wondered if there was any parts I could put on that would give an extra bit of umph!

reason for this is a woman beat me from the lights in a clio..... Im ashamed!!

Found this on ebay...

Wondered if it would give me any increase at all?

Thanks!

maybe but doubt it on a standard engine, the best mods to start off with are a janspeed 4-2-1 exhaust manifold or similar, uprated system and a panel filter.

i have a 1.0 and started with the power boost valve, it gave my car a good gain as people believed it was a 1.3 which was stupid of them, i cant gaurantee you will beat a clio as i was basically even with them just with the power boost valve but now tht ive added the manifold, de-cat and cat back the performance increase is real gd and they dont stand a chance

Get a piper cam for your engine, that'l probably add a few BHP

And forgive my lack of knowledge but what is a power boost valve? It sounds as crap as those 20+bhp mods on ebay

No its a genuine low to high performance modification, allows you to adjust the preasure of the fuel to the injetors.
