So if you have a new car and got a valve angle job, Would it have a Power gain you could feel? I Just baught a 2005 Suzuki reno, It's getting a t/3-t/4 turbo i just got.
Now the Reno gets the worst MPG of any 4 cylinder on the market. So my thinking is, If i get bad mpg i might as well toss alot forced air into the mix. The engine is made by Opel, And they turbo everything. For some reason I only think of this crap when my meds run out. Whats Tampa Racings view on this idea "for the Reno, not the meds"...

A good 3 angle is fine for most people, 5 angles if you want that extra last bit. Whether that extra bit is worth the extra money is up to the individual...

I dont know a thing about the Reno or why it gets horrible gas mileage but it probably has a lot to do with cylinder head design/efficiency...You may not see incredible gains on a stock Reno but it could help. Sounds like that head just needs a really good port job and maybe some bigger valves...
