Sorry, Im not sure what you mean by blow up type

I would LOVE to do individual throttle bodies, but I couldnt find a lot of info on them - what throttle bodies should I get, how to get past MAF, can I run it on stock ECU? Probably not. I found ITBs made by OBX for example, Im not sure about the quality though. Or should I use some motorbike throttle bodies like VW and Honda guys? Theres not much info on running itbs on EJ20 :/

What I would like to achieve is 100ish kW (134hp) or at least be in that area..95kW is good enough. It is 85kW (114hp) from factory, I think that should be achievable. It's not like I'm aiming for the big numbers like 150kW at the wheels, I'm just looking for a way in, start working on th engine. 100kW for a naturaly aspirated 2litre engine is something many manufacturers offer from factory.

Hi everyone, I just bought a GF (with naturaly aspirated EJ20) for really cheap, just to have fun, to start wrenching. I have NO experience with working on cars except things like changing oil, brake pads, calipers, discs, spark plugs..just the basic stuff. I bought the car to experiment, it was 200€, its not road legal, I expect Im gonna screw up at some point and blow the engine. So don't even go there - I know I don't have the experience, that's why I bought the car. Question is - what mods can I do to the engine that would actually increase its power? Something I could do at home, by myself I want to go the NA way, Im not gonna turbo it, not an option. Neither is a swap - I want to work on the engine, not swap it, even though that might be the best way to get more hp. Less restrictive exhaust? Improve the airflow to the engine? Better cams? Which ones? Bigger throttle body?
