Im kinda new to the world of s12's but i have quickly noticed there isnt much support for them. what are my options for the nose and spoiler? i have already aquired a hood off an 87 and the hard plastic wing with the light instead of my foam wing, but i cant find much in the way of ground effects. also what are my options for beefing up the ca20e to about 200 hp?

as far as the body, tehre isnt a whole lot you can do. Search the rest of the ca20e forums section to find what you can do as far as performance range. for the ca20e, you arent looking at getting 200hp without turbo'ing it. I am doign a turbo on a ca20e, and ill tell you, its hard.

out of curiousity, about how much hp is the most one can expect to crank out of a n/a ca20e? with what mods?

With or without NOS?

Without ... I think anything over 160 would be nothing short of amazing.

Considering the baseline of 102hp ... and even if you did make 160hp the car would be pretty much undriveable. For a non race-only motor, maybe 140-150
with cold air intake, ported intake mani, ported head, header, free exhaust, big ol cam, head reworked for larger valves, pop up 10:1 pistons ...

As for ground effects, the only bolt on ones would be the MKII turbo

If you're really good at bodywork, you could adapt just about any other ground effects for a square car out there.
