someone help me out

only 1 second increase for over $1600 worth of parts, i was thinking more around 12.5 or something like that....at least... those are some awesome heads, and the HSR made 63 rwhp on a stock 92 z28 so imagine what it would do with the modified stuff i am doing.... surely much faster that low 13's

If getting into the low 12's was that easy nearly everyone would be there.

Did you see this post on the tpi board?

Id say you are looking at pretty good #'s and times with some good tuning.

That's a pretty strong combo, should be good for about 400 HP, my guess would be mid-high 12s for a stock-weight (~3500 lbs) after the gear change

I missed the HSR in his first post. With all the upgrades it could be a 12.5 setup. I thought he was sticking with the TPI when I made my first post.

I agree...that is a 320rwhp combo that would probably dip him into the mid-to-high 12s consistently. Opps...I'm the one who recommended to him the combo For power on a budget, I think he's barking up the right tree! :lala:

I am also slamming on a hsr and 100 or so shot of nos on my motor in the next couple of weeks, if I get to the track before iroc does I will post times. our combos are similar except for iroc has a bigger cam. I want 11's but will settle for mid to low 12's for now.
