It's guess the hp/trq time!

I've read several articles about AFR and the 165cc offers best performance over the 185cc unless you hit the 400whp mark. You definitly should manage to hit the 300/300 mark with such a setup. I believe you need to get pullies, TB, Mass Air and CAI as well. What's your timing at? You could get extra numbers with at least 14* timing and good spark plugs for a better spark. You got a nice setup but you really seem to have a big power eater somewhere out there. Did they tune your car before/after dyno? Keep us posted

I wouldn't swap intakes, the track heat should be fine. As other have stated, you may need to upgrade your fuel system. What size TB, MAF, and injectors are you using? What's the A/F ratio. I'd recommend a 65mm or 70 mm TB. No smaller than a 75mm MAF and 24lb injectors along with a larger fuel pump. Your combo should be at 300hp if it were a 5sp.
