The most restrictive part of any engine flow is in the valves. Work the valve over with a nice 3-angle or radius valve job (oversized valves if you can get them). Lightweight stuff, like Titanium if it even exists. Heck, if you have alot of miles on the car, just a rebuild is probably worth 10 or 20 hp and ft/lb.


does a big throttle body improve performance? is it worth upgrading? TIA
