Re: 2002 S-10 Performance Upgrade

Ah, is there a way to know what would definetly fit? Like that engine compartment is wall to wall with crap? I think alot of it is for the fuel injection right, would some of that stuff come out? Are the engines in a 1500 and an s-10 that much different or the same? I mean the 6's and 8's?

cheap upgrades for 2.2

These are comparatively cheap for about roughly 20-30hp.
Underdrive pulleys i.e.- ASP, STS. 5 hp. 80-150 bux.
Throttle body off an quad 4 grand am 88-92? junkyard 20-60bux. hp3-5?
p.s. - clean it before you put it on.
Headers i.e. - Pacesetter,Al's. 15hp?. 200bux.
Intake - anything is better than stock but only helps in the upper rpm's,as long as you eliminate the tube that goes across the top of the radiator shroud. 80-200 bux.
Catback exhaust - price depends but always a good hp gainer, but can get exspensive so it might not be an option.

Go to s-10forums.com to find out details and/or installation procedures.

Re: 2002 S-10 Performance Upgrade

but remember, when doing that, you cannot simply add all the numbers together to get your new baseline hp. its a little more complex then that

Re: 2002 S-10 Performance Upgrade

I never believe those figures until I see proof on the dyno.

And I want to see it on that very car, with that motor because every car is a little different to start with

ok, dick, that must be your name, A. it's an ANALAGY, I compared 2 different things to show how the outcome could have a variable, and B. there is no "beleveing" or not, you cannot put on a bunch of bolt ons, ie cai exhaust, under drive pullys and simply add up the hore power gain, those gains (if even accurate) are on a moter in who knows what condition, say a Cold air intake gives 5 horses, what they aren't telling you is it only will give you those 5 if you have a high flow cat back styled exhaust
