Any common mods to 99 impreza 2.2? thanx. andy


Do any of these "tuners" post results from their dyno. runs on their websites?

I don't think any "bolt-on" mods will net much...you need to change cams and/or go with forced induction.

It depends on what you mean by 'performance'.

It is unlikely you could get more than 10% improvement in power to the ground with aftermarket mods. Those would include, intake, exhaust, lightened pulleys, lightened flywheel. Some of those mods also come with potential problems - CELs, ruined MAF sensors etc.

Now, chassis and suspension mods and better,possibly smaller, tires, will make cornering much more fun.

I sure THINK I feel the difference....much more than I hoped for. There is still a lot of rotating mass on the crankshaft...it revs faster at idle but still has engine braking effect. This kinda depends on how you race/drive. I should have mentioned the ground wire kits. Couldn't believe the difference that can make. TG
