Sounds great!!! Cams are going to be my next mod as soon as I scrape together the money.

Aluminum driveshaft, GT500 throttle body (which 'the experts' will say doesn't do anything), C&L RACER CAI, Shorty headers, X-pipe. You have all these?
Only a Mustang Dyno near you knows for sure.
I don't have the GT500 TB,shorties and shaft..From what I have read those mods will not do anything on a dyno for a N/A car..The shaft will reduce mass and shorties give it a nice sound??Not trying to be a wise guy just wondering. I was planning on changing tunes to a Tillman ,but if Bama is putting up those type of numbers I will stay.

Why not? I certainly don't see anything wrong with that.

I will have these cams and continue to use it as my DD.

your wrong gt500 Tb will see gains with cams on a n/a car. Just emailed justin at vmp tuning 2 days ago about this question, he said also with a roots style blower you will see gains. Shorties do give you gains also and soem have gotten really good torque gains with them and same with the d/s it frees up hp does not gain any but frees it up.

whoever said they have all the same mods and they have LT guess you didnt notice he had the gt500 TB and he also has the electrich20 pump . I didnt see those in your sig so your numbers may not be the same.

PRGT-I don't know what rims will do. I have stock 17s. Good Luck!

vaporstang-I hear ya! Hope you enjoy them. I sure do.

rick98gt-Yeah so I don't know then. I do know the Bama tune is bada@#.

MexGT-Thanks. I'm thinking Zex kit with all the trimmings.

blackS197-Thanks. Well of course it is. It's my only car (for now).

SirKnightTG-That's what I'm talking about.

TOMBSTANG-My disclaimer is; YOUR MILEAGE MAY VARY.

06Saleen3V-Thanks. I was pleased with the numbers myself, before and after cams. Only two times to ever dyno. Oh yeah, with the clutch and the 4.10 rear gear these cams are fun.

That sounds like pure sex. I need those. I hate to ask, probably a dumb question. But what kind of gas mileage did you lose with those.
