Is there anything that can be done for my 1.6L 2010 Aveo to boost Power/performance that wont cost a bundle? I've read CAI are a waste of $$ and just a gimmick?
Thanks!

a cai and a different muffler greatly improve throttle response. its not high HP numbers, but it improves drivability imho.
I don't know any car the a cai is a waste. Only a few cars have all out performance in mind from the factory that would null the benefits of adding a cai to a car that is also tuned for economy.
I did NGK BKR6EIX laser iridium plugs, 8.5mm Magnacore wires, and a drop-in K & N filter and my Aveo felt a little peppier. Simple mods ya know?
Missing our beloved 1st gen Aveos everyday!
Silence is golden. Duct tape is silver!!
04 Aveo (mine gone but never forgotten)
07 Aveo 5 (wifes car gone but never forgotten)
02 Suburban (Eats gas stations as snacks)
12 Cruze Eco 6MT (46mpg daily? Holy crap!)
12 Sonic 2LT (Wifeys new wheels)
Chevoo-1/2 Chevy, 1/2 Daewoo. I mean like WTF?
I like my coppers. I have not even performed the recall. I am due for a set though, My first set made it almost 20k miles.. and were shot. I am about 30k on this set, and lets just say I neglected changing them in the regular interval. I often think the recalls are because people are unwilling to change plugs that often in this day and age. But a fresh set of coppers does wonders.
I'm told I need some special tool to remove the coil to change the spark plugs is this true? I have a 2010 1.6L
i dont recall anything super special, its just a torx or allen? i cant remember exactly...
Yep just a t30 or t35 torx iirc
OK, thanks guys
