Fair enough, I skimmed through but now I've read through, I'm sorry for calling you an ass. But the coolant bypass, any hp? Also forged pistons? I had those on my sti, give i some power, think tha'd be decent?

categories covered in the sticky:

Quote:
Intakes
Exhaust
Header
Throttle Body
Short throw shifters
Balance shaft delete
Intake Manifold
Mounts
Advanced timing mod
VTCS Delete
Turbo kits
what more are you looking for? there are no "cheap easy" hp mods for the i4. You won't find much HP gains from anything short of a turbo. asking the same question that has been asked hundreds of times already is not going to magically lead to new HP mods. it's only a good way to annoy people. That sticky covers all the power mods you can pretty much find. It covers a lot more than what you listed in the 1st post.

No HP from coolant bypass, and no need for forged pistons unless you are going forced induction (ie. turbo). Forged pistons/rods wont give you HP, they will merely withstand higher HP achieved through other means such as turbo.
