Jdaneil has great numbers for a bolt on car. he's a set of stage II cams away from cracking 300.
No way. I was running 266.3 RWHP and 300.4 RWTQ before the camshafts with a total crap tune (12.2:1 A/F). After the VT stage 2 camshafts and springs (but with an admitidly crappy tune, fluctuates alot on the A/F) I am making 280.1 RWHP and 290.4 RWTQ.

I don't think 300 RWHP is possible without headwork. I wish I could go get a great tune and prove this, but I don't think it is worth it at this point (450 bucks for a tune, maybe pick up 10 RWHP and some torque?)

The blower is on the way this summer unless I sell her and get a 03 Cobra. (Insurance is getting cheaper

The first dyno sheet here is my tune after the cams (this is not a before and after, it is simply 2 different tunes with the cams installed)

The second is with my mail order diablo chip on (lower horsepower number) and with it turned off (stock program, more hp). BTW mail order chips do nothing.

Everyone is talking about bolt ons, what about maybe some hidden HP in the engine. My buddy has a 2g Eagle Talon TSi, without really spending any money at all, he freed up about 30 horse from his little 4 banger. Are there any hidden ponies under the hood he can do by himself without spending any money?

How are the stroker kits for the 4.6's coming along? I'm really intrested in saving up for a stroker kit to stroke my 281 to a 302. Anybody know how much it is and if it is worth it?

my 03 gt...

u/d pullies
full length densecharger with mam
75mm accufab tb and plenum
afm stage 2 cams
custom chip/dyno tune
o/r H
flowmasters

I think that was it for hp mods? and i was making 275hp to the wheels. with Lt's i think I would have been close to the 300 mark. I'm thinking about after the Lt's I'll upgrade my ignition and wires, and then re-ground my car (my brothers evo picked up a few ponies by doing this, it grounds out your car a lot better, and its under 100 bucks) then hopefully maybe I'll see 300rwhp. man this is hard

would a stroker kit be considered a bolt on? [8D]

Gotta make the power somehow, might as well up the cubes since we all believe that old addage.

So you can't go from 260hp to 300hp by adding a cold air intake, 2.5 inch exhaust, 3.73 rear gear, underdrive pulleys, Superchip and then dyno tune the whole thing up?

we are talking about rwhp here, not flywheel hp, soo you actually need to go from about 225-230hp to 300
