Thanks for the info, much appreciated :D . A buddy of mine has an acura 1.6EL running a T4 turbo, but that sucker doesnt get full compression till about 4500rpm, but he drag races it. I am more of a winding road type of guy and i like to have power on demand. I think anything from 160-200whp would b...

I was just looking through the gallery and saw you ride, looks sweet. What type of suspension setup do you have??? how much of a drop is that?? I called about the RSR springs and they only give you a 1.2inch drop, I was looking for something around 2 inches.

thanks,

I am intersted in adding a F/I kit on my 2004 Optra. I am wondering what size of turbocharger I should go with?? T25, T3/4?? what would be efficient for the 2.0litre engine? I will be looking to run around 160-200WHP.

thanks for the help.

You think the 2.0 engine will be able to handle 375hp???stock internals? I'm not too familiar with these engines. My last car was a Honda Civic.

I just took the stock airbox out and got a shielded cone filter(canadian tire in Canada like pep boys $30) and stuck it to the pipe leading into the intake manifold. took maybe 5-10 minutes.

what kind of turbo kit are you picking up??custom?? I will be definately looking into getting some more power in the near future. I have a buddy hear in ottawa that fabricates custom parts(turbo manifolds..) and he usually does civics/integras custom kits. I might have to ask him to make a manifold....

Just installed my first mod on the new Optra. I'm quite happy with the results, car seems more responsive and has a meaner groul to it. Anyways let me know what you think.

I enjoy every type of music, but when i'm cruising through the Gatineau winding roads I love listening to Trance, Pumps me Up!!!

DJ Doboy is one of my favorites

I used to have a 99 Civic SI coupe, did the 1/4 mile in 14.1, then it got stolen. Great cars but very, very easy to steal. I'm happy with my Optra now!!! I will have it in the 15's by next summer!!! :twisted:

thanks for the positive coments, my first mod will probably be lowering springs. I hate driving at stock height

Hello, just wanted to share some pics of my new STOCK Optra

Hi, I just discovered these forums, found quite a few interesting topics on here. Anyways I just got a 2004 Optra and i'm looking to lower it by about 2 inches. I can't seem to find any aftermarket parts for this car in Canada. If anyone knows where I can get some good lowering springs please let me...
