Default 40 more rwhp...

Just picked up my '04 from 21st Cent MC, they did it again!

GT2-3 cam and underpully installed, very stealthy! Picked 40 rwhp and 10 rwft! Just a bit more than we expected. With a dyno of 380 rwhp & 360 rwft it feels that power is finally becoming respectable.

Congrats! Your wax job alone should account for 5-10 HP. Your car looks great!

Enjoy it. How did this effect your idle. Also, do you plan on any head porting or changing?I have the same exaust and want to do something similar.

I came here expecting that EG converted another member and that you installed Neon and a big red Type-R somewhere.

Sounds like a nice upgrade list.

Congrats! One of these days I'd like to get a h/c and headers. Supposed to go to DTE next month for some 4:10's, then back to saving more mod money.
