What is the best way to boost your HP
- Thread starter NSXDOC

*cough* FX500
if you are looking for 25-35 rwhp boost NA style
Intake Header Exhaust will get you close
Intake ~ 40-300 (300 if you get the AIS for extra loud goodness)
Header ~ 1500
Exhaust ~ 1200-1500
i think that pretty much everyone will agree that for anything more than 50 rwhp
forced induction is the only way to go, other than 3.3 litre engine conversion,
although i think the SOS stage 2 kit + I/H/E will net you something closer to 60rwhp (check the forums for the dyno charts)
I think the comptech supercharger is $8-9k
and the FX500 turbo kit is like $18k-20k installed (?)
the FI section of the forums should give you a good idea of whats out there though
does that sound about right other primers?

The safest option would be going with the CTSC plus intake/header/exhaust. You are looking at $13-15,000 or so with install. You would look at somewhere between 320-375 RWHP with a nice TQ curve depending on the year of the car and strength of your motor.

Hello
You may also want to view the market sections for used forced indunction kits. They appear every so often and could be a viable option. I purchased my BBSC from JDMKing for a very good price. Mark installed it earlier this month and I already have 1,500 miles on it.
By the way, thanks JDMKing, the BBSC kit has worked superbly.
