Hey people,
I’m bored so I was thinking about what all I want to do to my MP3. So, here is what I was thinking:
I was gonna keep the suspension the way it is. It handles well as it is, so why bother with a good thing. However to help out the suspension I was gonna get some light Racing Hart rims (weigh less than the ones on there) in the same size (17x7.5). I was also going to see about aluminum calipers to help lose some unsprung weight. If they make, which I doubt, ceramic rotors would be nice.
I was also going to look at getting a carbon fiber hood to help lose some sprung weight. I’m not sure how much I will save with one, but I’ll find out before I buy one.
To help the drive train spin faster I was gonna get a lightened flywheel and under-drive pulley’s when they become available. And a better clutch to help catch that lighter flywheel. That’ll help free up some of the horsepower already there.
I was also gonna do an intake and exhaust to help out power. I figure lightening some things and adding a little more power should help out the car a lot.
If that doesn’t do it then I might look into forced induction to help. I’d like a supercharger because they are simpler and easier to deal with, but if all I can find is a turbo then I guess I’ll go with that.
