whats you estimate on power of this combo?

i will be getting a dyno tune when my work is compleated. thing is i need to know if my power is where im supposed to be when all said and done. i think my car runs a bit weak off the factory floor....not positive though, it just feels that way to me.

can you guys give me a rwhp range that i should be hoping for with my current mods in sig ad my new ones? which are fox lake stage 2 heads, and very unagressive street cams. fox lake said they would be so miled i might not even notice a different sound from the engine. i wanted emissions legal cam, so its a custom grind. i will also be getting dyno tuned with diablo chip. 3.73 will be installed also, i know they dont add anything but i figured id tell you anyway.

what range should i be looking for...thanks guys. some guys are making good power with these mods, i just feel like my car is underpowered.

Catted x, chambered mufflers, accufab 70mm tb+plenum and a cold air... with p/p heads and a mild N/A cam with an emissions tune, eh?

I'm gonna take a shot and say you might be in the range of 280+/- Did they say how much the heads had to be miled? Like .030? That might affect your compression a tad, if I remember correctly. Which might get you a bit more but, I don't see you getting too much more than 290ish, max.

I would say near 280 if it has agressive cams...

that was before you long tubes, correct? you made 240 with just catback, midpipe, and c&l elbo? thats pretty good. all i have more then you is the 70mm t/b and steeda cai....and that wont amount to much. with the heads , cams im hoping to add som decent hp. im really relying on the tune. i think if the tuner is good he should be able to sqeeze som good #'s just from the tune.

lets hear some more opinions.....thanks guys.

the magnaflows are straight through. i dodnt get info too scific on the head porting. the came im getting are going to be custon, but they are actually going to be blower cams. i need them for the down the road. i know that i could have picked up more from non aspirated cam, but what can i do, have to try to build it right.

if you are going to get MPH to tune it ?? why dont you get Tim to get you a set of heads ....I bet they will outflow and perform the fox lake heads and Tim has a good reputation for picking out cam grinds ...........just my thoughts IMO , the more you get done and MPH the better off you will be and the more power it will put out .........
