Trick Flow Stage 2 cam, 24# injectors, c&l 73mm MAF, FMS 65mm TB, Kirban AFPR, Trick Flow 1.6 RR, Trick Flow pushrods. Shorty Headers, Off Road H Pipe, Trick Flow valve covers. Steeda Plug wires and clutch adjuster. Tokico Suspension Kit. Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter, Dynomax Cat-back 3:55 gears

seems like an awesome set up to, just curious on what u guys think it will run.

It should be able to on a decent tire. The cam is too big and the car is not geared accordingly. Nothing too major. I can see a 12.5 in that car all day long, with practice.

well i'm goin to look at the car today, i'm leaving in a bit, nad hopefully if i like i will come back with it. the guy was telling me it needs some kinda oil breather, like a baffled one or something like that, anyone have an idea of how much that will cost to get done? and he said it needs a chip in the computer so that the computer sees all of the mods or sometihng, anyone wanna help me out on how much that will cost? he said somewhere near $500 on the dyno jet and chip. thanks, will let u know if i get it, thanks guys!

If it needs a breather it is experiencing blowby. If you take it for a test drive and get on it hard, pop the hood and look and see if the dipstick is sticking out... that's a tail-tail sign that there is blowby past the rings. It can be a sign of problems to come, or it could be nothing major. Mine has done this for almost 2 years and its still running strong. I also agree with Joe that the cam and gearing don't match, the stage 2 is a little on the wilder side than say the stage 1, but that's not a bad thing. That car needs like 4.10/4.30's in it, do that and it should really scream. $500 sounds about dead on for a dyno tuned chip. Does it idle? He might have meant a chip was needed for that.

Like $10-20. I have a ford racing one, it replaces your oil fill cap, but if you run it you must delete the tube between the oil fill neck and the inlet tube. This is actually the wrong way to do it, ideally you want to delete the PCV valve entirely and put a breather in each valve cover. This is a smog violation though JFYI.
