    Question Easy ways to get more power?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    What are some easy ways to get extra power out of our engines w/o dropping in a bigger turbo? i have the apr 93 and getting a creative exhaust, and have come to the conclusion are stock intakes are enough. So what are some things i can do that won't cost a ton of $$?

    Stickers! Those easily add at least 50hp especially if they say NOS on them!

    Downpipe or Test pipe...

    Pour some sand blasting sand into the intake for a port and polish.

    Lose some unsprung weight. I suggest finding a way to drive the car without actually having to physically be sitting in it.

    Re: Easy ways to get more power?

    i would suggest removing airbags, those suckers add too much weight...should get extra 20hp for sure!

    Re: Easy ways to get more power?

    You've about maxed out what you can do with the stock turbo, aside from a FMIC and CAI (which you're not going to get -- according to your post) You could get the 100 octane program from APR. But I'm not sure what that will do for you, since you have an auto.

    I am gonna FMIC but from many of my friends and people on here say stock intake is better than any aftermarket out right now. I may upgrade my lines and do 100oct but thats over $12/gallon...And im not sure what exhaust im getting since i doubt a4ber is ever sending it(which i already filed a complaint with paypal)

    the stock intake, on the big turbo gti mkv tfsi, is good enough for about 350 hp...
