From Air Filters to Camshafts - What Performance Parts Do

By Mike Stone

Whether you are new to performance parts, or need more knowledge on how certain performance parts can help you, this guide can help you get that street rod or upcoming race car rolling.

Performance parts are designed to increase the overall power and usability of your car. They upgrade your vehicle, improving things like speed and efficiency. If you want a vehicle with a bit more power going 0-60, or to simply run better in certain situations, performance parts help.

So let's go over some performance parts to rebuild your vehicle the right way.

Air Filters. Air filters may seem to be boring when you want to go from 0-60 in 4.3, but they actually have more upside than most other performance parts. They give you car more power; a racing air filter can up your power by as much as 10%. They're quite easy to install; this can be done in a day or less. Also, if you ever want to take this air filter out, like many performance parts it's an easy job.

Air Filters. Air filters may seem to be boring when you want to go from 0-60 in under 5.0, but they have a lot of upside.

Air filters sounded boring before, didn't they? Most auto stores will tell you, air filters have a lot of upside, and little downside in comparison to other performance parts. They improve gas mileage, so the investment pays you back.

Cat-Back Exhaust Systems. If you really want to "soup" your car up for speed, sound, and engine life, the cat-back exhaust system performance part is the answer. While it has less upside than the air filter, the benefit of additional engine life is hard to beat.

A racing air filter can improve your engine power by as much as 10%. That's quite an advantage.You can install these performance parts in a day or less. And yes, if you want to take an air filter out, they are completely and easily reversible.

One prime reason to use these performance parts is that you get better gas mileage. It may seem odd that a performance part helps with gas, as most don't, but the air filter is one that does.

These are some of the top performance parts for any car, from street rod to monster muscle car. While this is a good start, don't forget about other performance parts like the carburetor. - 21396
