All said above ...plus could be your fuel injectors, fuel pump, fuel filter, flush out your radiator...be very sure ur using NGK spark plugs , i use Iridium...beautiful. Ngk wires wouldn't hurt either.

I have a full 3 inch setup...u will lose some, acceleration with an exhaust and intake only. (look where your bottle neck is) Once you have the intake, test pipe, exhaust and headers...you will fill the power from the get go.

 

I'm gonna try and change my distributor this weekend. hopefully thats what it is cause man i hate how its driving. it doesnt take off at all u can hear its highly accelerated when i step on it but it takes off slow. anyone who knows about distributors would it cause it to do that its not moving. when i drive my uncles and i step on the peddle it jerks hard, mine wont but it still drives normal just not with the power it should.

someone please help me out thanks for all the replys so far it led me to thinking the distributor..

 

do all the other stuff first.

 

im gonna go on a limb here..and say ....
you engine is not the same engine in your uncles car...

SOOOOOO

no matter what you do it will not be the same as your uncles car...
you are not taking wear into consideration at all

 

my friend car was slow to and the dist. timing fixed it.

 

I know exactly what your saying but man mine is barely moving. i could get beat by a geo metro right now thats how slow it is

 

most of the stuff listed has already been done. my uncle has his old blown motor and the distributor is good so i was thinking to just swap it, but does anyone with experience with distributor know if the distributor could have that big of an efect.

 

the reason i say this is cause my car before the oil change made a whoping 119 to the wheels...

 

well it could be a maf being dirty of engine coolant sensor taking a shit my car will do that about 2 to 3 times a month i also have an intake and it didnt make the car much faster it did make a difference at like 5600 rpm to 7200 rpm it kept pulling i noticed stock ka's die out at about 5700 rpm i would say to check everything for wear think it of this way the only things that would make it change is AIR, SPARK, FUEL good luck is it dual overhead cam or single

 

Dual
