didn't read all your mods, if you haven't done it yet, advance the timing and get a good tune up, with the chip it should be at 300!

your setup looks pretty good. I seriously doubt you will pick up 14rwhp with just the chip, but you could change cams or always port your intake which should get you there before the chip will.

I know you said you don't want to tear apart the engine too much, but the e cam is pretty out dated. Maybe going with a custom grind or even a tfs stage 1 will probably work better with your setup. However, my guess is you're probably in the 12's as it sits.

I am guessing it wasn't naturally aspirated though.

What size font are you running?!?

J/K. I would go with a different cam to aid you to your goal.

his setup is similar to mine but without porting and i'm at the least expecting 300 w/ of course a dyno tune and all of that good stuff, and his heads are ported ummm......But i think ur 12's already also.

Here is your plan...

1.) TF stage 2 (or custom) camshaft, then
2.) Customer computer tune

Don't buy an off the shelf chip. You'll be throwing money away you could buy a good cam with. Off the shelf chips are for stock or near stock setups and, IMO, junk. Custom chip for your setup =

with 280 hp on the ground you should already be running 12s.
