Default powerpack question

ok so ive been going over my options and was just wondering do the power packs really gain the amount of power SSM says they will 70 for stage 2 80 for 2+ and 90 for stage three just wondering its not cheap but if so thats fairly decent power with out f/i but that paired with f/i would be really nice

Some dude on youtube did a home port job and got a cam from Matt at Delk. With longtubes, he made 240ish rwhp. 240rwhp - 165rwhp = 75rwhp

Super Six's heads/cam packages make awesome power for NA cars.

Look what just arrived in the mail yesterday! Yep SSM heads and intakes, used for only two months. Now just waiting for a tuner to arrive so I can put them on! I have a friend that goes to school for a mechanic and he said i can take it over there and they can put them on for free, which is sweet!

Zero if you can't drive lol - but in all seriousness, added power will mean faster times at the track. How much depends on which set up you get, how much you gain and how you are able to translate that power to the ground.

I wish I could! But no not for now, i'll just go with stock. Heads, intakes and a tuner should be enough to end a year. Cam would make a huge difference but later...maybe next spring!
