Engine Modifications

Before

After

MAINFOLDER INTAKE and EXAUST
Performance air Filter K&N - Dimentioned Exaust system with 6x2 3"Pipes - Eletronic Injection module, 12 pieces ceramic clutch. Air intake and headers had the air flow increased, from 72CFM to 92CFM earning 30Hp, also the compression was increased from 10:1 to 10,5:1.Only with these modifications the horsepower jump from 174 to 230Hp.(was not enough for me...)

1st step was - Increase the internal space and polish.


2nd was Chrome the aluminium intake.


engine cover painted (bright plated)

THE CLUTCH
The original clutch is not enough for more than 200Hp, so I decided to update this mod to 12 Pieces ceramic disc / 1040Lbs Plate

TURBO SYSTEM - Updating to a Turbo System,Custom TurboCharger pushing 0,7 bar, a big intercooler in the front, the Fuel was changed to (etanol),The estimated horsepower will be around 400Hp- 470Hp.

FUEL CHANGE
The Gasoline in Brazil has less Octane than the Etanol (Alcool); With this I can user a higher compression ratio and increase the boost pressure safetly.
To apply this change I needed to increase the bore of each injector and fuel pump.(all electronic changes also)
FUEL______________OCTANES
GASOLINE__________85 (regular) 91(premium)
ETANOL(alcool)_____110

GASOLINE-----------ETANOL (Alcool)
