I will teach you how you can improve your car performance in context of speed and quickness. Cheaply and efficiently \n\n\n\n\n\n
Growing up i have always been interested in cars. I have a bunch of friends that i met threw “cars”. It is a hobby i really enjoy and its a passion i will continue to do for rest of my life. \n
There are three major things that need to occur in order for your car to move. One there has to be fuel in the cylinder (combustion chamber), second air, and third ignition. When all these things happen a combustion occur which was the crankshaft to turn causing your wheels to spin. \n
There are all kinds of engines. You probably all know that some cars are faster then other when they come out of the factory, the reason for that would the the type of engine that mounted under the hood. The differences could be many Some engines with only Four combustion chambers (cylinders) and other might come with 6,8,10. \n
I 4 means 4 cylinder which are inline. V comes from the way they look as well. When you hear a car has 8 cylinder you would know that it has a lot more power then a 4 cylinder in general. That is because with 8 cylinder you are supplying more air and fuel. Which will get you moving faster and quicker. \n
having the right amount of oil in your engine plays a major role on how it performs. When you have too much you will have smoke and you car will idle badly (your rpm gage would be lower then usually which will cause it to shake). Also it will require more gas in order to get going. \n\nAlso when you don't have enough oil in your car u will burn your internals which will cause permanent damage, as the result you will lose power and fuel. \n\nThere are different types of oil you can use for your engine major difference you need to know is that the thickness of the oil, (it tells you on the top of the oil cap what the dealer recommend for the motor. Also you don't always have to follow the direction of the company only if you are putting in something better which could the fully synthetic oil. Synthetic is very thin and free flowing which will let you part move faster and more freely. \n
The type of gas you use in your car makes a big difference. When you go to a gas station you can choose what type of gas you want regular or plus or ultra 93. The higer you go the purer it is which will give you hotter combusiton cause the crankshaft to turn faster which will move you faster. In simply words you will make more power. \n
A tune up general is changing out your spark plugs which will allow for better ignition. A tune up can also be the rotation of the tire because after a certian time period you tire wear down on a certain part depending on how you car suspension. So changing then around will allow the wheels to turn more freely. \n
Having the right amount of tire pressure will allow your car to move more freely letting you go farther on less gas. \n
Radiator is a part which carries a radiator coolant which keeps the your car form over heating. When your car is the right temp it will performance better. \n
An after market exhaust is one of the cheapest upgrades you can do to your car. It is desired by a number of people because of the appearance, sound and most of all it allows for a much more free flow of gases decreasing the back pressure of the stock on. Giving you more power. \n
Headers are one cheap easy mod you can do to your engine in order to get better performance. A header just allows the gases to come out of combustions and flow threw smoothly. \n
Cold air Intake it probably the cheapest mod anyone can do to improve a engines performance In basic words a cold air intake takes brings in more air to the engine causing the computer to increase fuel as well because you need proper air to fuel mixture ratio. \n
This is another simple bolt on cheap mod you can do in order to get more power out of your engine. There are difference intake headers for different engines due to bolt on pattern and thickness. This allows for more air to go to the head. So the basic concept for making power is to supply the engine with lots of cold air. Also that why you car runs a bit faster on cold days because the air that going into the engine is colder. \n
The camshaft is a little expensive mod but with price comes power. Depending on the engine each cam is different. They still the same thing for every engine which is allowing the gates to stay open a little long so more air can get into the combustion chamber which leads to more power being generated. \n
When your internals burn due to overheating. your engine blows up which means that it would work anymore. By putting in after market pistons and rods in you will make sure that no matter how much heat is building up inside your foraged internals can handle it. So there will be less friction because everything will be smoothly finished. \n
