They might be, but only if you use appropriately larger jets in the carbs and also take care of the other end of the engine (ie. exhaust). Be prepared for more intake noise, too. (Yippee) After cleaning with carb cleaner or cellulose thinners, the trick is to seal up the holes in the piston with rubber bungs, and invert the assembly over something soft. The outer should drop slowly, taking a couple of seconds or so to fall off.

Yes, our operating company Zigzag Asia Co., Ltd. exports and promotes performance parts for Power House AMUSE and Tommy Kaira from Japan. Please contact bmv@zigzagasia.com for any business inquiries.

The ECU in the Eclipse doesn't have a replaceable chip. This means that a chip replacement isn't possible in the traditional sense. It may be possible to reprogram the ECU, but there are no devices available to for consumer use which perform this application. There are no companies which will modify the stock ECU. There is a factory device known as the 'Medic' which can reprogram the flash memory in the ECU.

It may result in a minor increase in performance. For examples see the GS Dyno Runs FAQ where there are examples of bikes before and after modifications.

As with the LT1s, available modifications include K&N free flow filters, air induction kits from API (800-426-8967), Lingenfelter (219-724-2552), and RK Sport (800-214-8030). Dynomax and Borla exhaust systems are available from RK Sport. You can also get JBA headers, Nitrous Oxide systems, shorter rear gears, low temperature thermostats, computer reprogrammers, underdrive pulleys, and subframe connectors. Motorsports Technologies Inc. (MTI) (404-509-3494) carry most of these mods.

A person's overall performance rating is one very important factor used in determining merit increases but it is not the only factor.

We suggest you consider the air foil carved by WindGenZen.Com which is based on a very fast, powerful and quiet shape or visit our website for graphs on start up and stall speeds (noise) for different configurations.

K&N makes several different types and configurations of performance air intake systems. Depending on the year, make, and model of your vehicle, only one style of intake system may be available for that vehicle. All of our intake systems are dyno-tested and guaranteed to increase your vehicle’s horsepower. Instead of making a general claim, we publish actual intake system horsepower increases for many part numbers and vehicles.

FOIL is an acronym for "Freedom of Information Law". The NYS Freedom of Information Law provides for access to state and local government records. If a NYS Department of Motor Vehicle record is not available using form MV-15 as indicated below, contact the DMV FOIL office. Follow the instructions provided below to request DMV records under the FOIL.

Definitely. Because hot air travels to cold air very quickly, a higher exhaust gas velocity and a smoother flow is achieved, and the cylinder is left cleaner for the next intake stroke, increasing engine performance.

We recommend you using Windows95/98 or Windows ME to run remote control server. You will get a lower performance when using Windows2000/NT, because Windows2000/NT is base on Client/Server structure. At the same time, Lower screen resolutions can also improve performance. Unless you are using a very fast network connection, we do not recommend using high resolutions.

No. The resonators present on the GT do not restrict exhaust flow. They just reduce the volume of the exhaust. They can be replaced with a straight pipe without any adverse effects to increase the exhaust volume if desired.

Normally, most motherboards set the Cache Line Size of the motherboard primary PCI bus (i.e. system North Bridge) to 8, with some of the newer ones choosing 16. At boot time, the system BIOS copies this value to our bridge CLS register. The number is small where little bursting is expected; but smaller burst lengths decrease available PCI bandwidth. The tradeoff is that small bursts have smaller latency, that is, less impact on other devices waiting to use the PCI bus.

The amount of performance improvement will depend on the application and its ability to scale. Several of today's hottest games see a full 2X increase in performance. In general, applications running at higher resolutions with higher image quality settings will benefit most.

If you are hosting an MP game, you can turn off the "Allow External View" setting. If you allow this each time a player uses an external view (pressing the 8 key), then that increases the network traffic. For a small TE or just a few in a campaign, there should not be a problem, but if you are hosting a lot of players then it could create warping.

Yes, The Powershot 2000™ is the perfect addition and will only further enhance the performance of chips, exhaust systems etc. It can also be used on stock turbo diesels as the only performance accessory.

Usually the best way to combat allergy and indoor air quality problems is with a quality electronic air cleaner installed in series with the air duct system. A secondary protection method can be a purifying ultraviolet light installed in the air stream. These methods have been tested and proven to improve your indoor air quality.

No. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has twice asked groups of experts to recommend national standards, but neither effort succeeded. Both groups concluded that there isn't enough research data on the relationship between air filtration and actual health improvement to recommend national standards. When you shop for air filters, you will find several rating systems that claim to compare filters. But these are not health-related rating systems.
