gaining hp with simple mods on the ka24

[ttfox88]

what mods can be done to gain xtra hp on the ka24 without having to swap the engine? for example cams,headers, ect. are stuff made for this engine?

[Soyo]

rebuild it, bigger bore and stroke, forged pistons, all better engine stuff... if thats what your asking, you could get a jim wolf ECU as well... I'd give you the website but I don't have it anymore... I'm sure someone does though

Then say "bye bye" to your bucks.

Get intake, exhaust, header, cams, S-AFC,and some extra power can be had from simply advancing the ignition a few more degrees. You can advance it even more if you have an S-AFC to add some fuel to surpress detonation. Knock the guts out of your catalytic converter or replac it with a straight pipe for even more power. Nitrous isn't any worse than forced induction its just way cheaper. If any knot head could get a turbo for $500 bucks they would have a bad reputation too. There are plenty of people who use nitrous on high mile, otherwise stock engines with no problem.

why does everyone think that??

cause nos is one of the most harmfulthings you can do to your engine. any one who know any thing about engines knows that unless you rebuild your engine from the ground up then it wouldnt last but a few times. the heat, force, and rpms that it exposes your engine 2 just isnt worth it

You, my friend, have no clue what you're talking about. First of all, as someone who fag races frequently, it's "nitrous oxide" or "N20," NOT "nos" or "naws." NOS, or Nitrous Oxide Systems is not the only god damned brand that makes n20. We have a certain movie to thank for people referring to it as such.


Second, nitrous is one of the most harmful things you can do to your engine if you're a moron. If you know how to use restraint, tune your car correctly, and use your brain, then nitrous is less deturmental to your engine than forced induction. The "extra rpms that it exposes your engine to"? Nitrous does not make your engine have some supernatural amount of RPMs, it just makes it go through the ones it has quicker. It just makes you burn more fuel and air in a sort of scientific method. More fuel and air burnt equals more power, so if you don't tune it right then it will blow up of course. This is true for a turbo. Get it too big without proper tuning and it will turn into a disaster. Hell, even a fuel pump could be dangerous if you do it wrong.


N20 is a very good solution for people running titanic turbos like the Y2k or whatever. A quick spurt and no more lag. Wanna get 20$ all night long at a street race? Bring your stock civic, equiped with a dry 50 shot. It will take the majority of mustangs and modded ricers you see. It has so many practical uses, and it just pisses me off when people talk shit about it without knowing. /rant.

Basically how nitrious oxcide works is that it is injected into your engine as N2O, and at 457 F, it breaks up into N2 and O. Like putting oxygen right into your engine

j spec you are the mooron i dont care if it called n2o or nitrous oxide or what ever you want to call it i did say unless you build your engine FOR it then it was bad oh and i havnt even watched those shitty movie the fast and furious or what ever they are called. you forget the faster you go through rpms the faster it breaks and if its not BUILT RIGHT like i stated before then say bye bye 2 your engine double the wear on your engine for 20 buck what kind of idiot would do that oh you would. besides i dont drag where is the challenge

All petty namecalling aside, you are still wrong and it's obvious. I can't even decipher what the hell you're trying to say.

You said that in order to use nitrous, you have to rebuild your engine from the ground up or else it won't last for more than a few times. This is not true. Nothing you said is credible or correct, or even logical. It's obvious from how you refer to nitrous as "nos" that you are not educated on it at all, and I was pointing that out, then it got me on a rant. Furthermore, you ask "what kind of idiot would do that?" What kind of idiot would use nitrous oxide to trick your opponent and get whatever money you bet on it? Alot of people would, and if I'm an idiot for getting money by doing that, then so be it. And then you top it all off by saying "besides i dont drag where is the challenge". If you don't drag race, then how would you know about nitrous oxide? What other kind of racing uses it? You're talking when you don't know shit.


And "wheres the challenge". This could really really get me good. But I'm not going to let it. Where is the challenge in drag racing, that's a good one. I'll bet that I could give you a brand new Viper and I could take you in a 1/4 mile race, at a track, if I were driving a new Corvette Z06. There is so much skill involved that you can't wrap your infantile brain around it, so shut it. If you wanna argue more, PM me cause this is going nowhere.
