Default Can my 2.3 V-Tec be as quick as Type R 2.2, How?.

Hi, just wondering if I can 'easily squeeze more power from my 2.3 V-Tec, especially as it's a bigger lump than Type R's, but guess that's cam'd up etc??

Well I think a power adder is about the only way to get 50+ more horsepower out of it. Turbo or nitrous.

Not interested in doing that as this is the 'Daily Driver' & got the real car as a weekend toy, however I know things like just a throttle body swap on some cars can make a massive difference & hence asking. Not after power in it as I say but if it were a simple task then I'd do it.

Thanks
