Free Horsepower??
My friend with his 98 LS1 says theres little tricks he can do in his car that increase performance like changing little things or moving stuff around. Do we have any free horsepower trick for our cars?

hes probably just talking about a few little things that everyone does. throttlebody bypass, messing with the intake, different tubing behind the maf housing, etc
nothing actually that noteworthy. especially with a 98.
i think there is a trick for like 6hp. maaayyybe. but its like 3 bucks

stop eating, lose 50LBS.
disconnect the battery, resets adaptive learning
gas pedal calibration - sometimes improves throttle feel
remove air filter from enclosure (I wouldn't try this)
run while cool
remove stuff (spare tire, seats, etc.)
not a whole lot on the table without a tune.

so these were his "free mods" 1. cut the air box where the filter sits to get more air (and dust?) a coolant bypass - hose from radiator to the tb so keeps the motor hot and gets rid of the gases (huh?) and cut the MAF sensor screen for more airflow. My friend had one for his 04 mustang that was tighten the gas pedal so it would be more responsive
