How to Improve Car Power?

The fuel supply system of gasoline engines has evolved from traditional carburetor-type fuel supply systems to electronically controlled fuel injection systems. Due to various resistances generated during engine operation, the actual amount of air inhaled does not reach the standard. Known domestically as ECU upgrade, car computer upgrade, or ECU flashing, the formal translation is actually ECU tuning. A technology that uses the exhaust gas generated by internal combustion engine operation to drive an air compressor.

I used to work in fleet logistics, and the key to power enhancement lies in systematic modifications. Flashing the ECU can unleash about 15% of the factory-locked horsepower, but it becomes truly noticeable only when paired with intake and exhaust upgrades. Installing a high-flow air filter and a straight-through downpipe significantly improves efficiency, though be aware that exhaust modifications are illegal in some cities. Another handy trick is reducing unsprung weight—forged wheels are 3-5kg lighter per wheel than standard ones, so shedding 20kg across four wheels is like removing an adult passenger. Finally, always reinforce the braking system—I once nearly rear-ended someone after a power upgrade because the brakes weren’t upgraded accordingly.
