Basic engine tuning

as you all know about how the engine works, tuning it to make it work better and faster means adding more air and fuel. But to do that needs more money, time, and effort. these are some basic tuning ways to make your engine move faster and more powerful.

Making bigger inlet and exhaust valves- bigger inlet and exhaust valves which means ports being machined to a "better" shape. so more air and fuel can go into the combustion chamber to be burned and also better escape of exhaust gasses.

Bigger pistons- bigger pistons makes the cc of the engine bigger. for example, an engine of a 1.6 litter being bored and fitted with a bigger piston to make it to a 1.8 litter engine. by making an engine with a higher engine capacity can make more horsepower.

Tuned exhaust and intake manifolds- with a tuned exhaust and intake manifold, will increase horsepower of an engine. because the engine can breath better and remove the exhaust gas better too. a well tuned intake manifold can make better air flow for each individual cylinder which allows more air and fuel to enter. this increases the volumetric efficiency of the engine. this also applies to the exhaust manifold which improves better escape of exhaust gasses.

Lightening parts- lightening your motor parts like the flywheel and crankshaft can contribute to more acceleration especially in lower gears. this is because less energy is being used to move these rotating parts. but it will not increase horsepower of the engine.
