    pullies a waste??

    Just caught that you baselined at 236 which I know isn't SAE corrected. Still, you gained 16 rwhp from just pullies and timing. Since pullies are basically worthless, you gained about roughly 13-14 rwhp from just timing?

    pullies a waste??

    Is your 252 rwhp SAE corrected? According to your sig., you gained over 25 rwhp from just a timing and pullies. Your CAI and Flowmasters are not helping. That's simply incredible.

    headers a waste of money?

    When I did my baseline pull the day of my tune, my a/f ratio was actually pretty rich, like 11:1. They tuned my car with the C&L MAF in place to a 13:1 a/f. My car didn't pick up much rwhp. from the tune, but it did pick up nice tq. gains throughout the curve and about 8-10 rwtq. at the peak...

    Will these put me in the 260rwhp area?

    Are your numbers SAE corrected? I can't tell from your dyno sheet. Also, what mods. are your "before" and what did you add to get to your "after" numbers? Thanks in advance.

    headers a waste of money?

    Thanks. I'll give it a try tonight as the file is saved on a different computer. Right now the file is like 200KB.

    headers a waste of money?

    I hope you understand that your shop could have easily attempted to talk you into purchasing headers and made some decent money off your purchase and installation. Sounds like you have a good shop and good people working there.

    headers a waste of money?

    Let me see, to make money off people? Why do they continue to sell intake spacers for the 4.6L? Why do they continue to sell CAI's? We all know those things don't work, but yet people continue to purchase them. Longtubes are not worthless. I never said that they were worthless. You...

    Will these put me in the 260rwhp area?

    Like all the other responses indicated, skip the pullies, timing adjuster, C&L MAF, and C&L inlet tube. Get rid of the stock H pipe. Everything else looks good with the most important piece being someone who knows how to dyno tune. I have pullies and C&L MAF - waste of money and time...

    Crazy amount of heat coming from engine?

    My temp. needle is always a little to the left of the center.

    High trap seed, low ET?

    I ran 13.89@101 mph, but my 60 ft. was terrible at 2.186 sec. I think the only reason I still broke 14 seconds was because of my trap speed. By the way, nice ET's. I see you don't even have LT headers. Amazing.

    headers a waste of money?

    Now look take a good look at your stock h-pipe and you will see the definition of restriction. Bolt up the JBA's to your stock h-pipe and you will see very little gain, if any. The restriction in our GT's exhaust is not in the header/manifold, it's that crimped up cat invested log of a...

    headers a waste of money?

    Look, you are missing my point. Headers, when installed with a new mid-pipe do produce gains. However, you don’t need to install headers to reach the max. output of our GT’s (250 -260 SAE rwhp) with bolt-ons. You can get to 250 – 260 rwhp without ever bothering with headers. That’s all I am...

    headers a waste of money?

    Ok, look at home many of the fast 2V 4.6's DON'T have headers. I never once referenced headers not being worth it on any other motor. My point is that they are not needed if you plan on staying N/A and never craking open the engine like 99% of the people in this forum. That's why the guy who...

    headers a waste of money?

    This question comes up just about everyday and I won’t let you receive misleading opinions. I am assuming you are talking about longtube headers. People with LT headers will tell you it’s worth it and people without them (me) will tell you its not. Occasionally, you will get an honest answer...

    C&L Plenum? Why buy a throttle body also??

    You have a PM as I do believe it's wrong to hijack this thread. I apologize for that.

    C&L Plenum? Why buy a throttle body also??

    Good job, you figured it out. Let me guess, you either personally sell LT headers or are somehow affilated with folks that sell them? Just a guess. You say I was proven wrong, but yet still nobody wants to e-mail me their LT dynojet files. Tell you what, if somebody with LT's sends me...

    What octane to run on 4.6 GT Anyway?

    That's correct, but yet you continue to see people waste money on higher octane. Gas companies love those people. Higher octane is not necessary until you change your timing curve. I am sure someone will debate this.

    steeda underdrive pullies vs. timing adjustor

    I completely agree, pullies are worth very little if anything on our cars. If I was to do it over again, I would waste my money or time on them. I felt no difference with them and they were my first mod.
