My car runs like an absolute bandit in cold temperatures. I have yet to swap to a 160 degree thermostat but in the winter it makes noticeably more power.

Does the 160 degree tstat actually make a difference? I've read over and over that these engines like to run hot unless you are boosting them.

My ideal plan is to get a 160 degree thermostat and an oil cooler to keep the oil and coolant temps down. Thats just me though. other people may not notice heat soak.

Yes 55 rwhp sounds sounds spot on haha 
I'd port the TB and do a SSRA for starters. That should help a tad. A UDP as well if you don't already have one. It all adds up...

Not bad #'s considering the mods. Put a lid on that bad boy. It may not show much on a dyno but on the street it will make a noticeable difference. Especially at the track.

No now I have Long tubes, ORY, Loudmouth II. No more cut out. I was curious to see what I gained from it all! Especially since the crap factory manifolds were leaking right before the cat on the driver side! Cut out was also closed for the Dyno run. I was too lazy to crawl under there and uncork it... oh well I guess.
