Just got back from the dyno after I put on my afr165's and FTI cam and scorpion rr. Graph shows baseline with mods in sig including cobra upper and lower. Lower was ported for afr heads by Tmoss during head installation. Fuel system is completely stock. Unfortunately no A/F ratio was measured. Official numbers were 300.3rwhp at 5500rpm and 306.6rwtq at 4700rpm.

GT40P+cobra intake = around 260 at the wheels, TFS top end = around 300 at the wheels.

no question there and i assume it'd work great with this set-up. this would be a college project but i'm doing the research now.

A good tune with an aftermarket fuel pump could put you up another 20-25HP!

yeah i'm ecstatic with the way the car sounds (its a TON louder) and drives . 1st gear is acrazy violent pul. I'm shocked that my 275 kuhmo rears can keep up. Did all the work myself too so that was very nerveracking and when it started ran fine very rewarding. Can't wait to get some tuning done and it definately needs some brakes. Almost bit the bullet the other day slowing down from 110. The smell of burning brakes is very distinct.

Consider the torque curve across the powerband. Peak numbers are for ricers to brag about at starbucks. Track times are discussed over cold beer at hangouts where ricers would get beat up.

ignition is totally stock except for wires and cap n rotor. Timing for the run was set at 18* advanced

Additionally, no tuning of any kind was performed on the computer, fuel pressure or the timing. So I'm betting theres still some more left in this combo.
