I OWN A 96 GT AND I AM VERY INTERESTED IN DOING THE PI HEADSWAP. I WAS CURIOUS ABOUT HOW IT WILL WORK OUT IN THE LONG RUN...IS IT WORTH THE HEFTY PRICE....HOW MUCH ACTUAL HORSPOWER CAN I EXPECT TO GAIN FROM IT WITH THE AVERAGE MODS...ALSO WOULD I HAVE TO RETUNE THE STOCK COMPUTER...ANY FEEDBACK WILL HELP...THANX
 
many people has done it with great succses and yes it is worth the price because the stock heads is what will keep you from making much power and i think you will expect about a 60-80 horsepower gain from heads,intake,and cam and no other mods butt boosting is a no no because of the raised compression which is about a point and as for you computer i would suggest getting a custom chip burnt so they can put all of your mods into consideration when it is programmed hopefully this is some help to you
 
thanks .i appreciate the info.....i will have to save up for a while cause i definately want to do it...i dont plan on racing though,i just want to be able to keep up with the 5.0s and newer gt's.
