I agree completely. At that power level, the single 3 inch should be fine, but the muffler could be killin it. We've gained over 20 hp several times by using better mufflers, or straight through exhaust.

Bigger is not better. I had the x1,x2,x3 and x4 cam from LG and the X4 cam only made 5hp more over the x3 and lost some low end tq. The x3 cam also drives better.

let me know when you guys get the TD's done or why not just swap the muffler as suggested ?

IMO the 4" to the bumper has a killer sound and much more street friendly then TD's driving you crazy cruising around

ask Lance how mine sounded with the 4" and Magnaflow

also don't go with the Vic Jr and 105 TB....it will not work well with your combo. The F.A.S.T 92/90 TB setup will be plenty for your combo even when you step up to heads. try to budget for the intaketb and exhaust so you can save on the re-tune costs

talk to you soon bro

your big cam needs some good flowing heads/intake and some added compression

I dont think your numbers are that low at all considering you are using that SS4000 converter. Put a good tire on it, and take it to the track.

If you pay for a certain range of numbers/times your expecting and you only get 1/2 of what you wanted, then it isn't OKAY. Sure track times are the main thing, but a piece of paper with numbers on it is way more than just a piece of paper, its bragging rights and being proud of what you put together.
Lol, I remember reading your thread bitching about your low dyno numbers. Then it turned out you didn't understand half of what was going on. You can make 420hp at one dyno and make 380 at the other. Bragging rights is when you beat someone not a dyno chart.

damn near 390RWHP through stock heads, an LS6 intake and a SS4000 are outstanding numbers for a big stalled auto. I'll be happy as a ************ if my MS4/PRC LS6 combo breaks the 415RWHP mark through my Vig converter...

Get some track times, if you can get it to 60" in the 1.5 range and your race weight is reasonable that car should go mid 11's all day

FYI I dyno'd 318.8RWHP and 310RWTQ unlocked(converter kills #s) and run consistant 12.0-12.05@108-109 with a +700 DA and a 1.629 60"

I think numbers are not that bad with that stall.

With good set of tires IMO you have an 11s car.

Congrats
