I don't know if this has been asked before, it probably has. I am very interested in how to get the most power out of my VT WITHOUT adding a supercharger.

I know the basics, extractors roller rockers, etc. but what sort of fine tuning and such can be done to make the six flow like a seven.

I'll be honest, the main reason im asking is becase my friend and I have made a bet and plan on heading down to the local drag course and racing in a quater mile.

He drives a Honda Accord. 6 cyl. I'm sure I can beat him stock but to do it by a long shot would be schwwweeeeeett

Any help appredciateed

I'd just run your mate stock, if you think you can beat him. Rather expensive way to win a bet!

pump front tyres up hard, f*ck-all fuel in tank {shud use optimax+bottle of octane boost), low rear tyre pressure, new air filter, light weight oil in motor, remove left headlight(fresh air to airbox) as old mate said reduce weight-remove everything you dont need such as spare tyre, rear seat, crap in boot ect..
now remember warm tyres up, stall it up on the line-launch hard just before it goes green(time it)maximum momentum-minimum wheelspin, you will win.. ;p
