The title sounds familiar. No more modification for Scooby. Today, I got my car back and drove it to KLCC for lunch with a friend. For the first time my car sounded like Ah Beng's cause I had installed a blow off valve. So now, every time I release the throttle, there is the "wohosssssssss" sound. :( This sound attract attention lar. It's has more linear torque and acceleration compared to before.
I had a chat with my mechanic today and he said nothing much can be done to the car now. If I want to mod it further, must change the engine internals like con rod, valve spings ..etc. The power gain will not be as much anymore.
So for now, I will declare that project Scooby has ended. There is nothing much I can do with her anymore to increase the power (changing internals are for serious racers only)
BTW, based on calculation, Scooby now has 300-310bhp at crank which translate to 260 wheel horse power. Not bad at all for a car that started it's life with me at 180 wheel horse power.
