Got a dyno chart and how many lbs you running on a stock bottom? And OP I'm no expert but many people run FI on gtos. If you keep the bottom end stock, then you should run about 7lbs and be fine. Look into a procharger. You'll also need a fuel system upgrade. But places usually include it in the price.

You don't need to replace anything except fuel system and some FI systems come with the fuel upgrades, injectors and 255 pump. If you have a manual tranny you will have to upgrade the clutch if on the stock one. Or you can beat the **** out of the stocker until it burns up. lol

Having said all that they are expensive and way out of my budget. That's why I use Nitrous. Same amount of power for far less until you go through 100 bottles then it's about the same.

buy my 122, put a 3.1 pulley on the snout and you should be at 7lbs of boost. If and when you decide to mod the engine, pull the 3.1 off and slap a 2.9 or 2.8 on it, and be ready!

On a stock motor without supporting mods like a cam heads ect... You are looking at probably 450RWHP........ With just a Maggie....

Depends on what you talking about LS1 or LS2? You don't need to forge your internals.
