Default realistic gains on 850rwhp car for intake/tb...

Assume u had a 850rwhp tt car and were to do a cam, lsx 102mm intake mani, and 102mm tb...what do you think the gains would be over a stock ls7 intake/tb/tb? Obviously running same boost numbers, just swapping intake, tb, and some sort of fi cam....thoughts?

The correct FI cam, and springs to go with it, will make a huge difference 80-100rwhp. As for 102mm intake + 102mm NW T.B. ~30hp. I have run the FAST composite intake for 5 years, and just recently switched to the CNC wilson billet. They are both great options, one is just 3k more than the other

I would suggest you call one of the big F.I. vendors, I use www.dallasperformance.com for all my needs, they will have several options for you to optimize your setup with...

Ran this one for 5 years



Now this one

I would say the Cam, TB, intake, etc. will net you about 50 whp... Not really worth the $ being that you're already at 850.

The Cam is the game changer??? It total depnds on what cam you have now! and what you will be changing it to. You must have something very good now or you would not have 850rwh. But what ever it is you will not get the gains in a boosted motor that you would with a N/A, The blower doesn't care as much (but still matters) about the cam its just going to stuff it in the chamber, its all about the boost presure and the timing.
