N/A HP BRAG thread

1slow370 · 10-23-2014, 03:18 PM

honestly the dry sump was one of the big chunks those things are not cheap, but TOTALLY worth it. Next time the motor has an issue it's gonna get the springs bolts and crank it needs to hit 9000 and I will shoot for 400hp... a couple years from now. Next step for the car will be Finishing up some stuff and getting sponsors from some stuff like brakes, seats, cage, some bodywork, wing, and a feature.

That's kind of a bummer... A little lope is never a bad thing!

i am sure your overall mod list is crazy and $$$

Wondering if there were certain parts other than the main bolt-ons (CBE, LTHs, etc.) that seemed to be the best for some gains without going completely crazy.

You mentioned head gaskets as something to do along with the cams, do they make enough of difference to make that combo worth it?

if yours are blown yes, my gaskets had to get replaced so I had the cams done while it was open. I'm very much a break it and build it better kind of guy. The main ones for power were in order pretty much the intake setup, the drysump, the cams, the headers. Once you start pushing it NA everything needs to be balanced, like the manifold lost peak power (picked up 13 in the midrange) until we put the cams and headers on and then it made more because the exhaust couldn't keep up. At this point it is kind of a package deal.
