#32968, "Alright, another UDP question"


          

I went over the "Things Before Section" and really started to think about getting a UDP again.

Biggest question is, what kinda performance gain am I looking at? (I know its not a gain, it just helps free up power but whatever emoji )
Looking at my current mods, is this thing gonna finally get my car to have some decent quick to it??

I'm in a huge debation with money right now. I'm limiting myself to one thing of the following list:

1. AFX UDP
2. Power window kit
3. Eclipse rear bumper and tails

If this mod is really gonna help me performance wise then case settled, its a UDP. Will I see a bigger increase from it, then say my muffler added? Does a UDP help low end, top end or everything?

And remember, I am auto, so I need quickness emoji
Also would a front motor mount insert help me at all once I have the UDP installed, or is it a waste?

Thanks.

a UDP will give you an increase in power, 8-10 hp!! It is more noticable in the upper RPMS. GET IT!!

Hmmm....maybe I can actually be intimidating when I race? Hahahah....stupid slow cars (expecially the auto)

Thanks for the help guys - if anyone else has more input please reply!

I went to rate you FasterGS because you always seem to help me with my questions, low-and-behold I already did!!! Hehehe....

Hmmm so that big of a difference hey....then I really should consider it over power windows I guess.

get the UDP, and for god's sake, don't do the ass swap, you have a talon, enjoy it and don't try and make it an eclipse. Although, If I had an eclipse, I might try and get my hands on a 97-98 talon front end emoji.

ya, the 8-12 whp gain was dyno proven on a neon.. our stock pulley that is replaced is actually a little bigger, resulting in more hp gains....

hit my site up for the writeup, and you shouldnt waste time debating on your question, UDP hands down.... then the bored t/b and p&p intake mani......

good luck, and ya, i like the 97 talon front end too.........

03 srt-4 13.130@112.47mph (n2o, stock turbo, 10/2003)
now: 20g, portfueler, bpu+++ (track/dyno times tbd...)
