This might be a stupid thing to ask, but could some of you help me out with letting me know the cheapest way to get my f22a1 engine up to about 160 horsepower without swappin the motor or anything? (p.s.: ive got a dnx axle-back exhaust, and an aem short ram intake) i ask this because a guy i know i think is getting a scion tc in the summer and the cb7 is lighter, so if i can match the power, then i think i can win a race. by the way, im not blowing my money just to race him, ive been planning on more engine upgrades for a long time. any help with this would be great, thanks in advance.

just because u have the same hp and u are lighter doesnt mean u will beat him. gear ratio's have a big part in races. what type of trannys does each car have?

h23 intake manifold, some sort of header, delta reground cam. that might get you up above 150 horse power but im not sure

yea thats true, theres alot of other factors besides weight and power, but generally speaking.....i guess i should say with 160 horsepower i think i can hang at least rather than necessarily win. my car is an auto...most likely the tC will be a stick...but regardless i just wanna get in that 160 range for nowThere are no black and white suspension answers!!!!!!!!!!!Comment

Ive seen that alot on this forum, and i dont really know what that is, but ill search and try to figure that outOriginally posted by dbsharpThere are no black and white suspension answers!!!!!!!!!!!Comment

True. AFAIK TC has a 6 sp manual which should be pretty closely geared meaning it should rape a CB7 tranny, unless the dude like skips second gear or something stupid.Originally posted by 93accordexcoupeGary A.K.A. Carter

Advice
I'm not gunna hate on u, It would be koo for u to get to the 160hp range, but the Tc like u said is stock at 160 and the gearing on the auto and manual in Tc's are good BC a stock Tc kept up wit me and it was auto an my car is a Stock 5spd so yea. I beat by like 1/2 car but still, U'll have a better chance converting ur car to manual or gettin that DOHC F22 mann.Originally posted by mndude07

Your best bet is to just get the f22b1 and you will save money doing that.
