FRPP Top end package
My friend has an 05 and was talking about ordering the kit, he says he'll smoke me with the "hot air dryer" mounted on the front of my engine lulz
He's pretty much intake/Shorty headers, 5 speed, 4.10s..

Anyone have this kit? Just curious in how much power it would make with the addition of a CAI/shorty headers.
No way he'll be even close to my numbers once I go intercooled.

No way that kit even with the LT's and intake will make 425 HP on a 4.6L, not even crank. That's simply ridiculous to think you can gain over 150 HP with that kit, CAI & tune and LT's bolted to 4.6L. Throw that kit on a 4.6L that already has a good CAI, update the tune for the kit and I doubt you'd be pushing more than 320-325 RWHP. Add about 10 more with LT's.
Tell your buddy to go for it and listen to him cry when you whip his azz with your Vortech.

I make 320 with Hot Rod Cams, CAI, Long tubes, and a tune.
Ported heads, intake manifold, new throttle body too with this kit?
Yes... it will make more than 325RWHP......
Will it beat the Vortech?
No.
But 325RWHP is not accurate.
Sorry.

I missed the ported heads and discounted the TB for doing little. What's your guess? I'll add about 10-15 more RWHP than my 320-325 guess and I still think that it's a stretch.
