    Got an '09 TC about 2 months ago, def isnt fast enough. It's a nice car i think so far I just want it to be a lot quicker. I'm thinkn of starting out with just bolt-ons. Does anyone know anything about these items and how good they are?
    1. Borla Exhaust System
    2. Fidanza Lightweight Aluminium Flywheel
    3. Invidia S Pipe
    4. PowerAid Throttle Body Spacer
    5. House of Billet Lightweight Crank Pulley
    6. K&N Typhoon CAI
    7. Weapon R Neo Race Intake Manifold
    8. Clutch Masters Stage 2 Clutch Kit
    9. DC Sport Stainless Steel Race Header
    With these mods I was wondering about how much power increase i could expect and if anything would help my fuel economy. If anyone has any advice or help with anything that would be great

    Welcome to the Club. You have a fairly solid power mod list. If I might suggest, you should drop the DC Sport header and go with the Weapon R 4-2-1 header. The DC Sport is a 4-1 (no matter what website regurgitates the erroneous 4-2-1 moniker) is great for high-end but suffers on the low end. The WR header actually comes with a matched s-pipe so you won't need the Invidia. NST has LW crank, water pump, and alternator pullies. The WR Neo is cool piece. If you plan on going F/I anytime soon, the Descendant Race manifold is more performance oriented. Jury is still out on the TB Spacer. People that are N/A seem to be happy or undecided about it's claims. I would not recommend for F/I if it is not a smooth bore.

    Post up some pics of your ride. Our resident expert, CadenceScion can help you with power mods and ICE.

    Welcome to Club-tC! I have the DC Sport 4-1 Header as well as the 60mm Invidia Downpipe and the PowerAid TB Spacer. I honestly have no complaints. I also have the Agency Lite Weight Crank Pulley, an AEM CAI and Tanabe Medallion Concept G axle-back muffler. If your looking for more power, I would go F/I (TRD Supercharger), or Turbo. If you want to stay N/A, go for a fully built motor w/ Brian Crower Cam's, EMS, Tune, bigger injectors...etc. I may also look into the Decendant Intake Manifold, since I am N/A and possibly the Uni-Chip.
