There are two ways to make a vehicle faster



Lighten the weight, remove spare tire, run thinner tires, ect...............
OR
Increase the engines air flow

The amount of air an engine can pull in decides how much fuel it can burn to release its energy
If you increase the amount of fuel then you get a FLOODED engine, less power
So you need to increase the amount of air THEN you can add more fuel to release more energy

A 5 LITER engine can suck in 5 liters of air every 2 RPMs
A 4 Liter engine can suck in 4 liters of air every 2 RPMs

5 Liter engine has more power than 4 liter because it can suck in more air, it really is as simple as that

The turbo or super charger FORCES more air into an engine, so more fuel can be used and more energy released

"Faster" than what ?
"Faster" requires more horsepower......horsepower costs money.....how much do you want to spend ?
