just trying to gauge where she'll be. I won't be able to acutally run it at the track for a while. It's a convertible with No rollbar. Just wanted to know what she'd contend with as far as other cars out there. Now i won't have to worry about some punk in a scion's ability to outrun me.

Any idea how much hp/tq this will possibly make? Will it be close to my GT @ 326.8rwhp/336.1rwtq?

you should be close to that but that's just a guess..every combo always is unique and runs different from another one that may be similar

Well that's good to know. I will dyno it eventually, probably in the Spring. I don't know if these cars are as receptive to a tune like the S197's are. My "06 woke up after a mail order tune then it really came alive after the dyno tune. Should be interesting. I just can't wait to hear her run with that big cam in it. Glub, glub!
