Power for my 96 se-R

May 17th, 2003, 11:25 PM

Hi nissan dudes: I was wondering if you can help me put more power to my car.
I have a Air Research T3 turbo, but I dont know if I gona used. Otherwise, what can I do to put power into my stock 96 se-R with maybe 500 dollars....

headers.. or cAI.. or exhaust.. one or the other.. you can get an intake and exhaust made for roughly 500 bucks..

Nitrous! For $500 you can add 50-75hp.The other idea I would have requires a knowledge fo fabrication to put that turbo on there!

first off you do not need a full exhaust
jusy gut the cat and weld a bigger muff in replace of the stocker
buy a used header for like $100 and then buy a used intake all from ebay
i ran 15.20's on gutted cat and wleded on aerospeed bomb muff
with just a filter and adapter

but dont expect great gains with $500

gutting the cat of a nissan will only drop you around 0.1 second on the 1/4 mile and isnt the best thing for the environment (I'm not a hippie tho) I just think its really useless since nissan cats are pretty highflowing already.

I would go with buying used upgrades from the classifieds on this site and our sr20 counterpart. You can probably get a header and intake for 300 dollars and possibly an exhaust with the extra 200...
