Vectra 2.6 V6 . How can i get more power out of it whilst not spending to much on it .?

Answer 1

Best bet would be to improve air flow in and out of the engine. air in is improved by a larger air filter. air out or exhaust is improved by a larger tail pipe and use of a free flow muffler.

Answer 2

Horsepower is all about breathing. To get more power, you need to increase the amount of oxygen and fuel entering the cylinders. You can do this by adding a set of racing heads and a racing cam. You could also add a turbo or supercharger.

You can also get more oxygen to the engine by adding a NOS (nitrous oxide) setup. NOS is probably the cheapest route to power, but is also a good way to destroy your engine, if you do not do it right.

Forget the K&N filters, cold air intakes, chips and the like. If you're looking for serious horsepower those are a joke.

I would suggest trading in the old bomb for something with a little more umph under the hood.

Good luck!

Answer 3

a viper enclosed induction kit is ideal for more power you're looking around £200 or maybe remove the cat from exhaust but will need to put back on when mot time is due a de-cat pipe should cost about £90-100

Answer 4

Depends how little you wanna spend? either air filter exhaust and chip or Nitrous! Nitrous has the best BHP/ per pound

Answer 5

Install it your self cold air intake. Tune-up with hot plugs(be sure to carry spares!) Computer upgrade. Tuned exhaust. Good luck!

Answer 6

take the catalytic convertor off & put a straight through pipe on

Answer 8
