ok so heres the deal: I am going to try racing in the American Iron Series this year. instead of them having specific rules for an engine combo the have a power to weight rule.

9.5:1 hp
9:1 tq.

my car weighs 3210 right now and is putting down 348 hp and 338 tq to the wheels. I think I have to knock about 20 hp out of it to be on the safe side. I already plan on putting a paper air filter on it in place of the K&N, but I dont think it will be nearly enough, so any sugg. on how to know out a few more hp?

sounds crazy, asking how to reduce hp, eh

btw, I really do not want to add any ballast, or not more than say 30 lbs.
