I'm glad we started this staying NA = $$ also. I almost refuse to go FI ( Bad experience) and stay NA I looked all over the place on what to do to make mid 300 WHP and short of FI I couldn't find anything. The guys posting 330+ WHP and on high reading dyno's unless they have mid 12's time slips trapping 115's they don't have that.

Case in point my car IS max out in WHP , I have everything minus headers, 2 reasons I don't have them. Is added noise ( Old man LOL) and the cost off install and price of the headers themselves VS gains

I'm sitting at 302 WHP low dyno and trapped 103 to 105 MPH constantly on 5 runs, and 13.5's. If I use a dyno calc just for giggles is shows my motor making 375 BHP. Headers, even long tubes are not going to get to 400 BHP. IMO the Z1 kit wont produce 400 BHP either since I'm running their parts BTW, minus headers of course

MODS and maxed out: 302 WHP 240 WHTRQ
