What can be done to this truck to improve power,it's a 4 cyl.,and it MUST remain quiet.

Thanks,Gary

MUST be quiet? that doesnt leave much......a WAI will be quiet at low rpm's but will growl at higher speeds..........timing maybe.

have you tried an electric engine?

J/K

exhaust= louder, Intake= louder, header= louder. Timing, pulley, ignition, cams, ECU (I'm really not sure if any of this stuff exists for your truck, I'm just throwing things out)

Turbos can be surprisingly quiet.

ya, i dont think any of that stuff is available for your truck

but i think the frontier uses the ka24de.....if it does, i'm sure u can use the pulleys, cams, dont know about the ecu

How do I determine whats in it,and yes quiet is good.I already have a noisy toy.I like the stealthy aproach to things.The trucks even the worst green I think any manufacturer ever came up with.

what size engine do u have?

if its a 2.4L.......then its a ka24, i'm no master on trucks but i think thats the only engine those trucks came with, double check tho

It is a 2.4.Being very unfamiliar with nissan,I dont know what the after market is like.I do know there are some quick ones out there.
