Hi all. I live in the island of Barbados and have recently purchased a 1998 Alto Works HA22s with a k6a engine. Everything's running fine, done some minor mods like an aftermarket air filter, boost gauge etc... Just wondering if there is anything else I can do to get more performance out of it. Been...
