07 Z51 mn6. Breathless CAI, Dynatech headers/cats, Borla Stingers, 160 stat, 232/240 .600 110lsa, put me at 440rwhp and 420tq. I have a Spinfast 92 sitting in the garage that I will put on here soon and that should put me over the 450rwhp mark fairly easily. Ported TB is next.. and if all that doesn't make me happy then a nice set of Trick Flows will be next and I should be right at 500 rwhp .. and roughly for the cost of an installed/tuned Maggie...

If I knew then what I know now I would've saved my money and gone the S/C route.

I have a customer with an 05 with my RPM-2 cam, RPM ported fast 90,36# injectors Kooks long tubes and a corsa catback and it makes 455rwhp.

I would suggest a set of American Racing Headers if you are goin to get a set. PM me if interested.

Yeah but you would also have to spend about 1500 to 2000 for a new hood. Plus you wouldn't have that awesome cam sound.

My mods are Vararam, non-ported FAST, u/d pulley, Comp Cams 230/236 .608/.613 113lsa on XFI lobes, Kooks 1 3/4" headers, x-pipe with cats, Corsa Cat-back and tune. IMO, this cam needs gears and a bump in the compression ratio. Soft on torque below 4000rpm. 3.90 gears are going on as soon as I return from Iraq next year.

EWP...Never would have guessed, thanks!

American Racing headers 1 3/4" stainless, high flow cats, X-pipe, Npp exhaust. ECS custom roller cam (Duration = 220s / Lift = 580s). The cam was my most recent installation (ECS cam kit). Stock heads and intake manifold.
