Drill some speed holes into the hood to allow the engine to breath better, good for maybe 75hp if done right.

thanks guys, for all of ur nifty ideas! about the muffler bearings, exactly how do I do that? do I have to take the rear sway bar out inorder to reach the hangers? i am under the assumption that the muffler bearing is connected to the sway bar right?

also, the response to ballzoutstang: does that 10w40 trick realy lubricate and cool at the same time? if so, thats some good sh*t.

and for u haters, im not a ricer... my V4 is pure americana muscle!

Take your wheels off at the drag strip or before you race. Weight reduction and because of the fact the brakes are smaller then the tires they spin faster. Also instead of screwing holes into your hood just take it off. Then go out and water the engine and air filter to cool it down. You should run and easy 6.78 1/4 with all the mods we told you to do.

you can take off the cooling fan too due to the extra cooling of the 10w40 oil.
and put some stickers on it, they add 15hp each.
a trick I learned is to pour a beer into the oil , it will give the car more confidence and make it faster.
and like crazyfast said make sure you water down the air filter and engine, but wait till you drive it hard first, then the cold water will have increased effects.

If you replace the stock muffler bearings with low friction, poly-unilateral perfomance muffler bearings, that will increase the quantum drive output by 150%, then if you convert the quantum drive to a hyper meta-physical quantum drive you can push the limit of your V4 to the full potential. Also don't forget to remove the stock header bushings and port out the clutch cable for an extra boost at high RPM.

Good luck.
