Ok guys

Im looking at getting some more BHP out of me car. There is a link i noticed to the side of the site and it links to the TURBONATOR site. Do those things really work???
Also, whats the best way to add BHP without losing the MPG??
Car=Civic 1998 illusion 1.4L

Cheers
Dan

What? There's a Turbonater link on here? I don't think so. Those things and the "Electric Supercharger" have been discussed at length and were found useless.

The best, safest, and most reliable way to increase Hp is to get air in and out. ie. Intake, Header, Exhaust.
