but my second thought is that with the blower on there you better get a set of headers. I was at 510 one day and there was a guy there that completely melted his stock exhaust with that blower.
You might as well put smaller pulley on blower while you are at it. More air---more fun!

Drive line upgrades, since even with the Eforce tune, the car is still being hobbled in TM so you don't blow the drive line up.
As for the LS2, 600hp with the stock pulley/tune, and if you drop the pulley down to a 2 3/4", easy to pull another 30 to 40HP (and just more power to blow the drive line up if you stop the TM from hobbling the power).
Simple fact is, at most until you hit about 150mph and can start to put all the power down to the ground without blowing the drive line up, at most, your only putting around 280 HP to the actual ground now under 100mph. So instead of chasing even more HP that you will still not be able to use (get transfered to the ground), mod the car so you can start to put all the power you already have to the ground instead.

If you don't need them yet, you will soon.

I am addicted to knowledge. I would like to know more about only getting 280 HP to ground. Also I thought you turned off TM.

You turn off TC in comp mode, and then all Yaw corrections in full off mode, but TM is still limiting the amount that will allow to go into and out of the drive line to save the drive line. Worst yet, in full off mode, more sedate throttle response out as well.

You're clueless.

The ECU HP and Torque values are easy enough to monitor with Dash commander, Torque, EFI, or HP tuner, and tell me the amount of HP/Torque you can get to the ground without the tires breaking free/spinning at any give speed of actual driving conditions (not some WOT number that you can pull on a dyno instead).
