So, I finally convinced my fiancee to let me do a swap in my 97 Aspire, under one condition...The current engine has to be on it's way out. So with that being said, since I'm not allowed to put a bigger engine in at the moment, what are some things that I can do to up the performance of my B3. Keep in mind that I'm sort of a novice when it comes to Engine work. Thanks for any advice everyone!

Dickmeyer.
I installed his header and fuel pressure regulator.
And it gave me quite significant power increase.
The cone filter intake filter actually had lost me power so I kept the stock airbox and got me a drop in k&n filter 33-2222.
And in combo.
It is great.
Next step is a cam and a full performance rebuild.

I'll wager she'd think a B8 was the same engine. Tell her they changed the valve cover, etc, on newer models.Last edited by sketchman; 10-11-2013, 01:34 PM.Any difference that makes no difference is no difference.
