Looking to see if anyone runs something like this set up I知 looking at
220cc heads bald eagle cam fast 102 intake throttle body hooker dual exhaust system
Hooker headers and finally a tic street fighter 3500 stall wondering what kind of rwhp I should expect from a set up such as this

Big money for what I would consider "small" upgrades, and I don't say that to be an ***. Just giving my $0.02. I can't take a guess on power, but I will say:
That's a lot of money for your exhaust and Throttle body. Some will say I'm crazy, but you could save a lot of money there and go with these alternatives - and there won't really be a difference in power using these alternatives:
1) Fi-Tech 102mm Throttle Body comes with *ALL* the necessary provisions, and they make a cable driven one. I simply don't see the point of spending more than $200 on a throttle body. Again, someone will come in here and defend that Nick Williams piece to death, but it was a cost I simply couldn't justify, by any means. $150-ish if I remember correctly - and works flawlessly. Never even had to drill holes.
2) Speed Engineering make an amazing True Dual exhaust kit, as well as headers.For both headers and full true duals kit $800-ish
Hopefully I'm not breaking some rules posting these other pieces. If I am, well then I guess I'll get a warning.
Thanks,
Andy

Holy crap, that head/cam package is more than I have in my entire setup lol.
I 2nd the Speed Engineering exhaust.
I would look for another converter besides that overpriced TCI crap.
I also 2nd the throttle body comment.
Your mod list there will give you a little better than about 1 HP per $100. That's not very good.

I wonder what his HP goal is. Agreed, a ton of money for a lot of high-dollar parts where the return is not great.

I second this !
I would highly recommend not going with that inefficient garbage converter. And like said, OVERPRICED.
Here are a few converter companies that you would fair o so much better with.
- Yank (What I run)
- Circle D
- FTI

Which car? Year, make and model. You mentioned being legal. Do they smog check?
