And yes Im leaving stock cats on but probably will end up with hi flo cats soon.

With stillen exhaust and stick cats 330whp is super optimistic. You'll be more around 305-310 range that's also dependent on what dyno it's tuned on as well.

I have a 7AT with Borla cat back, Fast Intentions cats, K&N intake and ecutek tune. I'm going in for 3 dyno pulls tomorrow and will post the numbers. There are times I think I made the wrong choice with the automatic, but it was only one part of the overall package when I bought the car and I'm still VERY happy with the car I decided to buy.

I hear ya, I'm sure you're right. I'll probably end up rolling to AAM or MA Motorsport to get tuned.

I liked AAM they took care of me and the tune came out pretty good. Tune alone got me 14whp and 8tq but still the speed limiter going away plus rev limiter bump I loved. Oh yea can't forget tcm tuning for harder and faster shifts lol

FPenvy · 10-06-2015, 05:44 PM

I haven't had experience with MA yet but they seem like good guys from what I've seen. Plus they build for forsberg and im a big fan lol

I'm an AT kind of guy but I like your attitude. Drive what you like.

i think 90st has the strongest motor on record with most mileage.

on another note, i run stillen gen3 cai / cbe and i highly doubt i'd break 310 WHP after a tune. my humble goal would be low 30x's at the wheels.
