After fully tuning my car with the blower im making 330hp and tq at the wheels, but I still need more power.

so i droped another 1600 on parts

e303 cam
thumper ported heads
1.6 rockers
valve covers (going to make my own evac system)
timing chain
gaskets all the way around.

The car is currently making 10lb's at 5000 11lbs at 5400.
Hoping to make well over 400rwhp with these new parts, parts should be installed in 2 weeks by me of coarse then I can tune it out and try to get to a dyno.

i think you are going to be disappointed. you might see 400, but not "well over 400"

then again, i'm also thinking you should be making more than 330 with what you have now.

just my o.

Twisted wedge or AFR 185's would have been a better choice on the heads for 400+ but your combo is ok, also the "E" cam is rather tiny

Even with a blower i could really only see a 30rwhp gain or so from those parts. Why the E303???? There are tons of good blower cams out there.

Some have said the F-cam works good with turbos

Wonder if it would do well with a blower

I've seen some say the E-cam has a bit much duration for boost
and can blow some of the charge out the e valve

totaly rained on lol

When i did my 330 pull it was 100 deg out and it was a safe tune. I can easily pull 340-50 with more timing and less fuel. Thats after driving 4 hours straight with 4k miles on the oil.

Im going to be shooting for 400+ my friend says 425. Depends on how crazy i want to tune it. Plus the boost wont be at 11 with the new heads, its going to drop a little so i can always pully it back up.

I wanted to go with the cheapest route and just for heads/rockers for afr 165's alot of places wanted 1700-1800, to expensive for me.

for 1600 i got a cam all my parts and a new timing chain.

I would suggest a water methanol injection setup such as snow boost cooler or afm mr. freeze. That will allow you to get a little more agressive with the tune and still be safe.

Click to expand...

for 300 bucks id do it, but i didnt want to keep filling it up every so often. If I dont get as much power as im looking for id def go with a snow kit.

i have read where some guys have run a full tank of gas per tank of methanol! I'm not so sure if those small tanks would last that long. I know the AFM mr. freeze is less than 200 dollars so that might make it even more attractive.
