Default Re: hp gains (wrstdude)

Each car is slightly different and many of the vendors give a range rather than a specific hp number for modifications. These two will allow better breathing and exhaust flow and should free up on the order of 30-40+ horses. Of course I'm literally guessing, a dyno run would be much more preferable. :cheers:

:chevy

I'm buying killervette's silver Z06-killervette.com He's the administrator. He's got plenty of pics. He's brought it back mostly to stock except for the engine upgrades
