1998 S70 Aftermarket ideas

Post by northwestbirding »

Hi folks.

I have a 1998, 2.4L non-turbo S70. I love the car, but am getting a truck this year, and figured I might turn my daily driver into a little hobby and see what sort of performance i can get out of it. 135k miles, runs great...needs a new air pump, but other than that everything is stock and has been replaced on time or is running fantastically.

What sort of options do I have for getting some performance out of my engine? Not looking to spend a bazillion dollars, just a few ideas for things I could upgrade and get some more speed from my car.

Not a whole lot you can do to a non-turbo, but check out some of the suggestions in this last post:
