Okay guys, I finished 2nd last night in my '87 GA. It has the 2.5 and I need some HP advice. Nothing too extreme or expensive, but anything advice would be GREATLY appreciated.

It does feel kinda indestructable BUT, I need to squeeze more out of it.

Since it's strickly a race engine, you could try adjustable cam timing. There are gears that you can set but I don't know if they are available for your engine.

Another thing is a larger, free flowing exhaust that helps engines at the top of the power band.

Engine currently has a less restrictive exhaust. No cat and a straight through muffler.
