I have a 2004 Acura TL standard with an Injen cold air intake (16hp). What can I do to increase te engines horse power without forced induction? Im looking to hit the 350hp at the wheels mtk.

 

That requires a lot of time and money. It seems you have not also searched the forums. I doubt the INjen will net you 16whp crank hp maybe but definitely not wheel. All this cannot be backed up unless you throw your car on a dyno.

 

Hey OP, welcome! But, you're not getting 16ph from a CAI, nor will you hit 350whp N/A. You most likely won't even hit it with F/I.

 

BTW, post pics of your ride!

 

16HP with an CAI? wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

 

^ lol

 

J&R have already passed the 350HP mark with the turbo.

The SC OOTB will give you at least 60HP and with additional tuning, is probably capable of more.

Either option is not cheap though.

 

for serious?

much reading you need to be doing...

 

LOL come on guys lets help this noob out instead of flaming him LOL !!!

1> CAI ~5-7 WHP
2> p2r Throttle Body with spacers ~6 WHP
3> UR crank pulley (free's up the existing HP AND TQ, you will notice a difference)
4> MDX spacer ~8WTQ
5> PreCat Deletes ~20 WHP ???
6> JPIPE and full catback ~20 WHP ???

Now dont go adding these numbers....sometimes the mods work in complement with each other !!!

If you want to hit 350 WHP staying NA (naturally aspirated which means you will not get a turbo or supercharger), you will be prolly porting polishing everything and i means from intake runners to bigger pistons (i dont know much about this), having all the bolt on's possible and you might barely hit 350 WHP AND WTQ.....

 

hey man if u let paul stroke ur engine to 3.6 liter u will have 300whp, and 280 lbs of torque tuned with a FI/C.

 

Its nice to get approximations but you need to take the car to a dyno to get a baseline...If you do not even know that the guesswork is useless...Plus I bet the op thinks the car has the original rating of 270 something crank...instead of the updated SAE ranking of 258 or something like that. But if you want hyped up numbers bring your car to a dynojet.
