Any ideas or am I done with all the mods I have? Hey all:
Just wanted some input from everyone and see if I am done with the mod bug or maybe I still have a little more room for some more Power. This is my set-up and also my recent dyno tune numbers.
2002 Camaro A4 18K miles.
Volant system, slp throttle body, bellows, asp underdrive pulley, tea 5.3 heads stage 1.5, 224/224 571 at 114 lsa, 30lb inj, 255 fuel pump, pacesetters lt headers, tsp y-pipe with hi-flow cats, magnaflow catback. The trans was fully built and has a yank 3,200 stall with 342 gears.
I also have a nx system 100 shot with a flo mini-progressive controller that starts at 3,000 rpm and ramps up tell 4,800 where it is 100% to 5,800. The tunner has it set-up to shift at 5,800 due to the torque falls off but the HP was still climbing.
On the dynojet in California ( 80 degrees outside ) on 91 octaine it did 393 HP and 408 torq. On the 100 shot with the ramp set-up it did 508 HP and 523 torq.
The last 2 things I was looking into was the fast set-up or rockers. I am just not sure if it would be worth the extra money or if I am done for now. I know I can always up the 100 shot.
Any input would be great. Thanks all

Send your rockers into Nasty or Harlan for a really nice rebuild. 250$ can't beat that!
Definitely on the FAST setup. That is what most people seem to start out with, or attempt to at first these days. I picked up power like a mother going from the stock intake to the 78 FAST.

How much do you want to spend?
Being in CA you are up against emissions. If you don't care then you could always go bigger cam and better heads.
Failing that, there's better intake manifold and electric water pump. Plus an underdrive pulley.
Forged internals and run a 200-250shot of nitrous. Plus a built tranny and use more revs.
Then there's always larger displacement, 383, 402 or 408ci.
Or failing that FI. STS rear mount or a Procharger.
Depending on how much $$$$ you want to spend, there's at least another 300-400 steetable HP up for grabs.
