Default Got my car back from Slowhawk Performance

I got my car back from Slowhawk Performance this weekend.

2000 Trans am ws6 6 speed
87k miles

Parts installed:
TFS 215 heads
LS7 lifters
Ported Fast 92mm intake
92mm throttle body
Z06 MAF
98mm Lid
42LB injectors


Total mod list:
TFS 215 heads
LS7 lifters
227/233 112 LSA custom cam (I think those specs are right)
UD pulley
Ported Fast 92mm intake
92mm throttle body
Z06 MAF
98mm Lid
42LB injectors
Kooks 1 3/4 long tubes
ORY
Magnaflow CB with e-cutout


Car made 455rwhp and 413rwtq on Slowhawks Mustang dyno. Previous numbers were 402rwhp and 378rwtq.




Car runs great with the new parts and tune.

I definitely need to save up for a 9" rear with 4.11 gears now

Thanks again Don !

Don finished my car in 4 days and he looked really busy when I dropped it off. The turn around time is excellent if you ask me. I honestly wouldn't bring my car anywhere else.

Might do some racing with a 490hp 2003 cobra this weekend. I will go to the track next week if the weather is good. I'll give you a heads up.

I'm using a Monster stage 3 clutch and flywheel. The stock clutch did not last long in my car after I added the cam.

I bought it off chrs1313 on here. You know the guy who sells those sheet metal Ram air kits on the Speed Inc site. This intake was on his car when he made 490+rwhp through a stalled a4

Also, I didn't forget about getting my car detailed by you. I just need to recover a bit on bills right now. lol
