I say leave the headers alone, and add a Fast intake and 90 t/b.
You will see about 15 to 20hp and 15tq to what you have now. The headers 5 hp, maybe.

The OP already has the FAST 90/90 combo.

I missed that. Numbers seem a little low with those mods than.
But he did gain almost 100rwhp over his stock number!

I do have a few miles on the bottom end... Perhaps that is a factor...

Your car will scream for sure! Are you going with the AFR 205's like Mark (Toque)?

Better drive-ability not as choppy of an idle but when I made that decision I had the G5X3 in mind, not that im thinking about and x2 I may go with a 112 but I'm not entirely sure that i will go with an x2 vs the x3 either. If I go the x3 route it will be on a 114, the x2 could go either way but Im going to talk more to sean and AFR about it before I decide.

I am running the X2 on a 114.. If you would like to hear it or go for a ride we could link up... I ran the x3 in my 4th Gen 114lsa... you "may" not like that one as you will smell like fuel when getting in,out of your car Sean built my 4th gen.. 243's,G5X3, FAST 90/90,RPM Level4 tranny,Vig 3600 stall,373's.. It was a screamer for sure!!

I'm running the RT cats that come with the LGM headers so I'm not worried about the fuel smell. Also if im not mistaken the increased overlap of the 112 would cause more of a gas smell than the 114. On my Charger, I went from a CC 114 lsa cam to a MP 108 and use can't stand behind the car.

That's a pretty big cam for a blower application IMO. The X1 and X1E are LG's "blower" cam application if you will. The X2 is a bad *** cam though no doubt. I can't wait to hear Matt's. I almost went with the X2, but went with the X1 on a 114, to be able to add a blower one day.

You do know that AFR has the 215 now right? That's the ones I went with. They are the replacement to the 205, but I think you can still buy the 205's if I am not mistaken. The 215's just flow a little better than the 205's up high.

Great results Matt. can't wait to ride in it.
