Dude forget tinting your windows. Just go ahead and paint your brake calipers red for an extra 20hp! :)

I actually glued some pubic hair to my front bumper and made a little mustache for my celica and boy that added some pep.

If it keeps your car cooler and keeps you from turning on the A/C...indirectly maybe.

I don't know about horsepower but it definitely lowers your heat level if you happened to be in heavy pursuit with the police. Despite if your license plate has changed or not, adding tint or stickers to your car will definitely make your car less noticeable to the cops.
No really... You must be joking right? What does the window have to do anything with the engine? Seriously just for a minute or... hour... THINK ABOUT IT.

^this...also, indirectly yes because window tints will require you to keep windows rolled up for a good 2-3 days so that time that the windows are up , there will be less drag thus faster. . for 2-3 days

If window tint had a way of functioning as a solar panel and the electricity converted to power to the drivetrain then you could make a case for it giving some horsepower. :chuckles:
