Tuning tips for the Honda Concerto
Concerto tuning tips from the car tuning guide, we take a look at the best power mods for the Concerto in our latest guide.
Available in standard form with power of upto 123bhp (depending on the year), so this goes to show the tuning potential of the Concerto. From this you can increase the power from anywhere between 135.3bhp to 209.1bhp but this is far out of the reach of your local part store.
You will need some extensive work on the engine block, gas flowing, porting, 3 angle valve job, fast road cams, a remap, full balance and blueprint and even then you will need to add some pretty serious forced induction upgrades.
Honda mods should include an engine swap to provide a better base to work from. The ’123bhp Concerto Hatchbacks’ is a real gem in terms of power. The more powerful Concertos respond well to tuning mods. Your first engine modifications for your Concerto should be an induction kit, sports exhaust and fuel boost valve.
A fast road cam will make quite a difference to the peak power of your Concerto. Getting better flow through the head of the engine would reward your Concerto with more power. So get the engine head polished and ported.
The most powerful Concerto Hatchback in our database offers 123 bhp. From this you can increase the power from anywhere between 135.3 bhp to 209.1bhp with mods we have outlined above.High on your list of mods for your Concerto should be handling improvements. To avoid other problems you should lower the car no more than 36mm.
We will have more detailed Concerto modification guides in the near future. Please check the site regularly for updates.

I never knew the Concerto could be made so powerful with those kind of upgrades. I have always read about Civics, but was not familiar with this type.
And I do agree that lowering a car too much will cause more problems than the benefits you receive.
