When you say not by much, do you mean by 5/10 or by 20/25 ?

I'm not flaming anyone - I'm asking questions before I spend my money.

If the parts perform - I will gladly buy them. I'm not saying that they dont, I'm asking what bit of information I am missing when LG says 490-510 and customers say 460ish... because the post I have read on this forum say that 494 number was on a fully race prepped car.

What I see posted by LG, and posted on their site does not confirm what is posted by their customers here on the forums for this specific setup.

He's right. What were the mods in order to gain 489/452? I'm curious myself because I ordered the L92/L76 a few days ago.

It will need:

60-62cc chambers, valve reliefs, ported intake ( a MUST for that goal) Killer bee, K&N, or Similar Credit card slot style 100mm+ Maf housing, ported TB, sans cats, .040 gasket.

And a good calibration It should be close if you pay attention to detail. Dont let Ed touch the intake port, and do not raise the exhaust port without touching the header flange and verifying they do not crash.

My heads have been milled .020 - giving them approximatly 66cc chambers, looks like I'm a little bit off there, maybe 5-10 Hp loss?

Ported intake I have

No Cats I have

Cold Air I have with K&N

On the 100MM MAF, I have a OEM Sensor in a 100MM pipe which I'm sure will need to be retuned.

On the ported TB, your talking ported stock 90MM right?


Bobby, the items you listed above, is that all to get to that 489?

Isn't there a 2nd version of the g6x3 that will leave 5 hp on the table but pick up another 20 tq?
