Just so happens to be mine, putting out...

252hp
190-something torque
Peak boost was 10.5psi.

Stock bottom end, FR Head, Crane 3 Cams (set straght up), 2.5in kamakazi header, 2.5in flex, 3" on back.

good numbers man. dtp did a real good job in three runs but im sure they could bring up that dip in torque between 3200-4200. good stuff overall though, that must be a blast to drive.
Impressive! But I like to know how it feels while driving around town. Doesn't it feel alittle plain on the lower RPM range?

then it gives you an excuse to stay at the top of the rev range!

Wow. I was interested in this kit too.


I mean, it's a good peak number, but 120ft/lbs and 140whp at 4000 rpms?

I'm pretty sure my car puts down more than that (at that RPM) with just bolt-ons.
I rarely drive between 5-7000 RPM so I'd never be able to tell I spent $3-4k+ on that S/C, tuning and dyno time.

It's the cams that are to blame for that. A set of less aggressive cams would change things up quite a bit imo. You may want to look at that dyno again...140ft/[email protected]
If that's not good enough for you, you're pretty much sold on a roots style charger, or turbo.

I'll likely switch to crane 2's in the future, but not until I take it like this out to the track first.

Here's a dyno of my earlier setup, same stuff, but with a 2.25in exhaust, no tuning or SC. Drivability was fine btw.

I believe McNews has two sets of FI cams (one for mild and one for wild I believe) and they may work better than crane II's. I don't know though.

hell you can get custom ground cams... but you better know what you are ordering.
let us know what it does on the strip, I am interested in this kit.
