the easiest way to do that would be a quick search of wiki... cant your mechanic brother help you out with describing what certain bits of engine gear can do? i would happily explain it to you to the best of my ability if you werent so nasty to an innocent 18 year old earlier :cry:

my brother brought the bmc cda air box the other day and rekons it cuts out the flat spots and adds some power mid range, a mate of mine said the cda sounds really good but tbh i couldnt hear it over the engine any way, 325 do sound nice :), he raced a civic type r and kicked his ass, and also a corsa vxr kicked his ass also and a mini cooper s and kicked his ass.
