Good question! Looks like we're in for a hot day predicting 88 and humid = sucky numbers. I'm hoping for 310 or so myself, car has run 13.15 so should be in that area. Jeff

The corsa's will likely add nothing the blackwing about 10rwhp but the gears will cost you at least 10rwhp so though you will have more power and with the gears a lot quicker car but the numbers will say the same---

You'll be lucky if you see 300. 305 tops. I have the same mods. In fact the exact same mods, down to the brand names, and mine dynoed at 300 with the 2.73s. I fully expect that it will dyno lower now with the 3.42s. But I'm not going to spend the 90 bucks to find out. I don't care. Comparing dyno nbrs????? Put em back in your pants boys 
Going from 2.73s to 3.42s will drop your dyno nbrs a bit. But your car is without question, quicker than it was with those 2.73s.
I wouldn't care if it dynoed out at slightly less than 300. I'd much rather line up against you if you were still running 2.73s than I would now
