how do i make my ea rev better and more resposive

Alot of people will call bs on this, but i found just doing the basic bolton mods helped abit.

Backyard Performance style intake= just whack a pod filter onto the intake tube (use zip ties to hold it in place).

Get rid of half the exhaust, just before the diff is perfect and sounds nuts too.

Do a bit of weight reduction with things you dont use like carpets, broken subs/audio and possibly back seats.

Put in a Pintara 4.11 diff and you will rev like crazy. BIG FUN. (needs a minispool to be real. Single spinners are gay).

Me and those povvo mods (except the 4.11 diff) pulled me through to a 15.3 in a manual EA on bald 14inch no name tyres.
Take my advice however you will.

Carpets? anything that has two bolts on it take one off (1 will be fine) and you can save some weight.

2 zipties weight a lot less than 1 bolt... ditch them all. Gaffa tape will hold panels oneasy enough too

Why is it not revving properly at the moment?

Sounds like the valve springs have gone a bit soft and you have lost some seat pressure?? Zip tie a couple of the coils together on each valve spring. That should net you another 20 pounds or so on the seat for better valvetrain stability.

Make sure you use the good quality zip ties....get them chromed.

run it on thinners

And remember when you run it down the 1/4 to do it nude and with no shoes. that should shave something off

You may want to add a bit of structural quality gaffa tape to that.

Hmmm adding coils to an E-series? Goes a bit against the E-series trait of angle grinding coils off their springs for that slammed look?

sounds like the go im sick of that clutch fan noise and also some transmision mob said they would do up my diff to 3.7 or 3.9 ratio but that is going to cost nearly $1200. i also went to a wreckkers and they said they could fit a lsd diff for $500
