Default Building my beast

Well the car went in today for the final performance mods and dyno'ing. I have a 2005 black coupe with almost all options....I have added the CAI snakecharmer intake, colder TR6 plugs, 160 stat, Lg longtubes with high flow cats, X-pipe and BB bullets....I heat shielded the tunnel and wrapped the plugs, O2 sensors etc. Should have dyno numbers in three days....Will post...I am hoping for about 465 flywheel and 400 rwhp....I just installed the kenwood dnx 5120 nav system and will be taking it on a weeklong road trip through the rockies next week. Can't wait....

Have fun on the trip, sounds like a blast. Keep us posted on the numbers, I'm guessing around 380-385 rwhp with those mods.

With similar mods - Kooks LT and hi flow cats, Callaway CAI, 160 thermo and a tune my car dyno'd at 385 hp, 374 tq, through manual transmission.

Therefore, your guessometer is well calibrated.
