I think it may be possible to get 35...maybe 40...depends. At any rate the 25 is a safe number for sure. You could possibly get 15 just from the pullies, CAI, TB and MAF. the cam for sure would do another 15 or 20.

250 rwhp with stock heads ? That's over 55 rwhp over stock (Maybe with a stroker).

I maybe thinking wrong, but wouldn't they Edelbrock mani alone net him a good 10-15 horse to the wheels? Just curios, cause im looking at doing a lot of the basic bolt of stuff this summer and was looking at an intake manifold, but for $300+ for the power, I might look at extrude honing for now.

i would say the about 15 hp increase because the intake is very restrictive and honing it wont get you very much so i would say get a new intake and the edelbrocks are very good intakes. other guys on this forum have said they saw a big differnece in power with a new intake

do heads, dont waste your time with that unless you do heads. you can get some ported stockers for 500 or less and it will really wake up your car.
