sry this is kinda stupid but whats the stock rwhp fer a 98 na? i heard it was around 160ish?? and 1 more how much $ would i have to put into it to get it up 2 my goal wich is 215 ??

stock hp @ the flywheel is 160 for an 89'... if you want 215rwhp, that is going to take a bridgeport, ported manifolds and every bolt-on that there is..

ok..how much hp could i get from just bolt ons or easy to do mods...i guess what im tryin to say is that i dont wanna pull the motor out of my car unless i go completly turbo but i would rather go bolt on

Its hard to say, not many people get on the dyno. Especially n/a guys..

alright...ill prob. never get on a dyno either but is there like a ballpark hp rating for each part i put on?, the most i wanna spend is around 3k fer the motor...any suggestions??

Why not just but a used T2? $3000 couls buy you a pretty decent one, I purchased mine for $1500, but it needs some work.

ya i was thinking that but i already bought a n/a 4 1200 w/ a system almost in perfect shape it was a good deal so i had to jump on it...think i should do a tII conversion? how much would it cost?

t2 conversions are very in-depth, just ask 1revvin7, I've been a member of this forum for almost a year ands his is just running now. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

alright i kinda got that considering you need a new engine drive train and what not soo i think iv decided im gonna stick to bolt-ons i dont wanna port if i dont have to like i said i have around 3k i little more if needed to get this car to 215 rwhp is w/o nos if possible, now the question is......."is it?"

o and it has to be street legal..edmissions is important but not that important.....soo what im trying to say is id like to atleast keep 1 of my cats and it cant be as lould as hell

well if you add a full exhaust motor back you will most likley not pass emissions. Even with a cat if you put headers it might not pass visual inspection.



THANK GOD I LIVE IN MIAMI NO EMMISSIONS ! ! ! ! ! ! !! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

alright ummm then what catbak do you guys recomend that has the most hp and will still pass??

Any cat back is emission legal most HP Racing Beat or Apexi N1 Dual are my favorite. Im still saving for the apexi one but I want it with the silencers which jumps the price from $580 to 680 https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif

Buy a T2 or add nitrous. It's really the only way to stay within your requirements.

alright

Do exhaust, then without going turbo the easiest way is to use nitrous, wet setup. You'll have to upgrade your fuel system once you get high enough and once you get past a certain point you'll hvae to upgrade to a t2 driveline as the n/a one won't be strong enough. I don't remember the specific numbers though. But after all that trouble and at that point, i'd just go turbo unless you have a thing for all motor.

hahah South Park.. Gotta love it..
