[2LV8ETR]

After being asked a million and one questions regarding what are the best mods to perform to an engine to get (x) amount of power, I have decided to post up real world examples of what modification people have done to their engines, and the power output of the result.

I will lock out this thread to keep out unwanted chatter as I intend on posting many examples to give you all an idea of what to expect if you were to proceed down a certain path.

If you want to discuss any of the examples here, go to the relevant forum for the vehicle type and post any questions in there if you want questions answered.
