I want to modify my 2002 GT further but stuck as to where I should go from here. Currently I have:

K&N Filter
4:10's
Prochamber w/ Mac FlowPath's

I want to be able to achieve 300-350 horsepower without using a supercharger or NOS and still be able to be a daily-driver. Is this possible or am I dreaming.

For over 300rwhp on your GT you are going to need Heads, Cams, Longtubes and all the bolt ons. Its not easy!

You'll have to do some major head work and get some really good cames how streetable it will be is something I can't awnser. With stage 2 or 3 heads and cams LT's all the bolts on's you may get 350rwhp but it will cost more than buying a blower or nitrous kit in the long run.

Your dreaming

You would also need to stroke the motor.
Actually you need a big bore.

I am wondering after spending the money for heads, cams, and extra bolt on's, maybe I should just put the money into a blower. Looking at the Kennie Bell site, their products look promising...

Haven't had a prob with a single thing.

No exhaust leaks with the LTs/OffroadX/Magnaflow
No idle probs w/ TB or Plenum
No undercharging/overheating with the pulleys
No residue probs w/ the Accell filter

I have had some SES lights w/ the O2 sensors being farther down the path than the OEM ones, but the lights go off by themselves after a couple of cycles. I guess that they are so close to tolerances, the they don't go off very often, and when they do, they reset themselves.

Yeah I was worried about the undercharging w/ pullies. I am thinking about the Steeda w/ Timing Adjuster. You think its a proven mod?

You can most definately get HP w/ the TA and premium fuel. I didn't want to do it because I knew eventually I would go SC and the timing would be done w/ a chip.

It will cost a lot more than supercharging, but if u dont want to be a cheater ( here comes the flame from the s/c'd guys ), GO FOR IT. Long tubes, offroad x, catback, pullies, intake plenum with t/b or the P51 intake manifold, K&N FIPK, timing ajuster, comp cams(the one u should get is grind #XE274) then tune. Judging by how my car ended up you should be somewhere between 300 and 320 rwhp and 320-340 rwtq.
