Here's my figures...

Stock 245hp
T-Ram +46hp
Headers +15hp

Me driving is worth about 5hp

I'm thinking about 315hp...?

I wish SLP would make the damn things again too - just for the fact that I would have a ton less money into machinist bills!!!

Dave Hamburger from SLP was working on trying to get production together again, but I guess they had a big fire at one of their plants and lost alot of the molds. They didn't feel it would be profitable to go thru the work of rebuilding molds to sell maybe 50 units a year. Which is honestly about as many as I think they would have sold considering the price I'm sure would have been monumental knowing SLP.

If the T-Ram compares to the SuperRam or MiniRam then darn, 1077 some bucks ain't bad! Those other two cost like 3 grand. You can buy a speed density ECU shystem for 800 bucks and then I guess then all you need is the TB, right? That ain't half bad.....
Later,
