Default 0000000 What a rush

I just got back from driving my car and I noticed a BIG gain in power. I just installed a 90mm fast intake ported by Tony Mamo from AFR, a 90mm NW TB, and a set of harland sharp rockers. Next I might swap out my SLP LT's for a set of Kooks or QTP stepped 1"&7/8 race headers. I should be damn close to a 11.0 or better NA pass at atco . So what do you guy's think .......Kooks or QTP? Some people say they are the same with diff. names, others say they are diff. I just want the most power possible

Noel,

You gained 10 RW with the 90mm intake & I'll ask are the Harlen Sharp's the 1.8's? At any rate glad to see you saw a difference & you still haven't beat my MPH,lol. (Slowhawk MPH).. As far as the headers go, get the Kooks! Nothing is as better, IMO-Fred

I never changed my sig because it wasn't that big of a gain but I have run a 11.4 @ 120 at E-town. I wasn't all that happy with the new best so I never updated my sig. You figure skinny's ,k-member,a-arms and X-pipe would be worth more. I didn't feel anywhere near as much of a gain from the X-pipe and TD compared to everything I just added. I think the headers are next, they should be good for another 10-15 RW

Go with the QTPs. You pick them up at the warehouse in northern NJ. Gains are 10-15hp over SLPs from what i have read.

I'd go with the QTP's. Barry has great customer service and the price can't be beat when he does the group buys. Stop buy to pick em up and save on shipping.

I love my QTP's... just gotta get the car in the air and do a final adjustment on the exhaust.
