Jacksolo4me: Forced Induction is usually the route to go for big power gains...

But accessing those parts and someone to put all in place without breaking the engine after a couple runs is a woe here in Nigeria.-if not laughable and near impossible

In Nigeria, You won't get any tuning shops or ECU tuners/ReFlashers just road side mechanics n a whole lot of "Professionally recommended blow and break your engine Mechanics"..
"

jacksolo4me, boys aint that bad anymore in naija,we are great, believe me. Actually, if know what you want and how to get there and you guide them well , they will deliver to you. You wont go to the road side neither to the servicing giant, but simply pay a visit to a good spare part market , for instance like Ikoku in PH or "Alorji" in ABA(pls forgive my spelling). I f you went there , check inspect the market first you will marvel at wht you could see and the untapped skills that is available , then you could be convinced and negotiate your bills. They will marvell at your ideas and you will marvel at their skills.

Mechanically, i have taken a 1.8 litre 4 cylinder engine block to bore into a 2.3 diameter that could accommodate a 2.3 litre engine for bigger piston strokes to achieve a 2.3litre capacity performance. This was amazing, the chap was accurate with the diameter of the bore to fit accurately with the diameter of the standard 2.3 original piston strokes, rings and gasket bought from the market. It accommodated the rings and gasket perfectly without any need for refiling(what you need is a technician with accurate sense of measurement and carefulness to bore accurate hole for the engine piston storkes, and a good knowledge of your specific engine timing, the right size of the the rings and gasket with the metals and connecting rods. Well,to cut the long story short, the car became a 4 cylinder supersport sedan..though i may not know how much horsepower that has really achieved,except i start going into the calculation of that, but the performances and responses were just excellence, way too better than the previous engine and it wasn't that expensive to do. If i had money for low end turbo and superchargers , they could have installed it as well, and port the cylinderhead to compliment the intake manifo & exhaust modification to prevent excessive backward pressure. When i look at it, the cost of doing that could buy a whole fairly use high end vehicle(AMG)

I do know sir that such mechanics and technicians are in existence in Nigeria.

Equipments and the required test to guarantee whatever mechanical installations done to an engine.eg,engine swapping, porting, stroker kits are done properly and won't break or blow up an engine.

Nigeria would get there and I know we would...We have some extremely bright and knowledgeable minds here.We just need Organization and proven outcome that the rest of us would trust and relate to...

African Domestic Market...ADM!!!

I doubt if the Mercedes c180 has an aftermarket cold air intake.....The OEM ones are good enough.(the Germans take pride in their craftsmanship).

Besides the merc thread should have the required info or checkout BRABUS or REINTECH(Merc specific aftermarket shop).

Remember these r supporting mods. .u won't gain much or any noticeable gain.best u know what u want before burning N63k.
Re: Your Modified Camry ' S - Any Model by auhanson(m): 7:33pm On Sep 11, 2014
thanks for the quick info.. i'll look out for Benz forum

Yeah...those cars.We thank God...

Just TRD hud caps on the wheel...since my rims have "RM racing" hubs on them n lost one after a misfit during an alignment mid year, decided to go with the TRD theme.

How is the ride with the K$N
Re: Your Modified Camry ' S - Any Model by Jacksolo4me(m): 11:08pm On Oct 25, 2014

How is the ride with the K$N

Did a full change of the ECU, key transponder n Immobilizer(camry 2008) Cos the other got damaged (immobilizer)

Now I don't know if it's da ECU.but shift points have changed after the K&N install....it revs to about 3100rpm n then changes...subsequent changes follow up higher on the Rev range....

My best part is hitting 3rd at 4500rpm wit an immediate pull ..I love da sound though.

Only downside is da 2nd gear shift point..it follows a slight rev up and then down with a slight jerk as it shifts.....shifts have always been smooth.

And yeah the economy just went from Grrrr to an hair pull.

I think you need to fit the old air filter so you can be sure you didn't get a bad ECU, I didn't expect the fuel economy to be worse.

Nope never had that before with the old air filter but I'd be sure to do so.

But there is a noticeable change in its performance n sound..not mind bending(I wush)

But then I must confess....The intake sound.well it's my fault on the fuel economy(lead foot syndrome-couldn't help it)

You can get a cat back exhaust for the sound pretty pricey tho, I'm saving up to get an Eisenmann sport for my side chic.
