Ive just bought a 92 Kh it has a 1.6 engine. I was thinking of getting a 1.8 but after reading the other thread in here realised its gunna be too much work to do.
It has a/c so i know its gunna loose power when i have the a/c on. What can i do to the engine to give it a little more power but without it guzzling fuel. I know i know buy a bigger car! Im not a big car person. this is the right size for me. but i have had a 1.6 with a/c b4 and i found it gutless when air is on. I dont need it go super quick. Not going to put it down the strip or do any racing. Just need it to have a little bit of power, without guzzling too much fuel. Im doing this on a budget so any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Jo |

depends on your budget, but extractors and an exhaust will potentially give u an extra 5-8kw and can increase your fuel economy by up to 15-20%. however this is guarenteed to set you back atleast $1000-1500.
