Dyno results from saturday

258.3 rwhp and 377.5 rwtq...that equated to about 304hp and, and 445 torque at the flywheel. Peak power was around 4300-4400rpms. I really gotta do something about the stock intake now. what do you guys think i should do next. I was thinking 52mm tb, i alreday have an extrude honed plenum, slp runners, big mouth manifold base, #24 injectors, trick flow aluminum heads, 1.6 roller rockers, and a custon burnt chip. Think all these parts will net me a 12.9 in the 1/4?

one suggestion, dump the edelbrock headers and get SLP's w/ 1 3/4 collectors, second thing i wanna know is how much money you put into your motor and suspension to run 13.5, thats what i would like to run in my car, that would be perfect, also did you bye your rearend new or get it used off of another car

Thanks -Don

Yeah, dump those tiny a$$ed TES headers. They are just plain counter-productive on a modded TPI motor with their small primaries and stepped design. Just look at all of that torque and no HP to go with it. That and get rid of the stock base or siamese it and maybe some better runners. I would just do those things and see where it gets you before going any further - unless you have a big chunk of change burning a hole in your pocket .
