Default Cams, Headers... etc.

I have a 2002 mustang roush stage 2. So far, I have a k&N cold air intake, a high flow catted H-pipe, and the ugpraded magnaflow/roush mufflers. For Christmas, I plan on getting Comp stage 1 cams, 24 lb injectors, shorty tuned bbk ceramic headers, a BAMA tuner, and a bbk throttle intake. Does anyone know about how much horsepower and torque I will gain with these new mods, or does anyone have any advice? Thanks, I'm new to this forum.

Some nice upgrades planed, not sure what the HP torque gain's that you will have, think the best way to know is take it and dyno it after you do your upgrades you can always do a before and after to see what your total gains are.

Welcome to the forums!

I don't think you're radical enough on your build to warrant getting 24 lb. injectors yet.

Scratch the injectors, and personally I would forget about the shorty headers, and the throttle body as well. Take that extra cash and buy a set of Long tubes, and a shorty mid pipe. Then sell your current catted midpipe, and you will end up spending less than you planned, make more power, and a have a hell of a sound. Cams and Lts work well together. The tuner is a must at this point. Just my

Sounds great and welcome to MF. You might want to try asking this in the tech section.
