Sure wish I could wake up to find that one of those had snuck onto my engine overnight. Love your car, can’t wait to hear about the results

We have basically the same setup. You should see the same numbers. Just remember, the numbers are just numbers at that time, on that Dyno, at that altitude, at that temperature, etc, etc. Bottom line is with the Maggie, headers, exhaust, and tune you will be at ZR1 power - with an automatic. Not too shabby.

You will love the instant torque. 100% at 1800 rpm ! Are you kidding me! The andrenaline it invokes is addictive. You can make lots more power in many different ways, but I will tell you that this combo is ideal. Still streetable, but still scares the **** out of you now and then. It’s enough power to scramble the nannies at 70 while passing an 18-wheeler.

Pure fun. Great choice.

PS, the only difference is I am running B&B Fusion 3-inch open exhaust. It’s not the key power maker, but definitely adds a few ponies and amplifies the experience aesthetically. I’m auto as well, so the driveline loss is the same. Yours will post strong numbers - no doubt. Please PM me the results. Would love to know.

Default Addition To Wish List

ill start saving for that mid, I have a 2011 GS that is all stock and has nice power but your set up would take to another level of scary. Look forward to seeing the finished product and any lessons learned.
