42# injectors
918 springs
Requisite Gauges
Power Steering Pulley
MSD wires and NGK-TR6 plugs
4:10's
Tune by FBC

490/450 on the dyno at Heffner's Performance (the Viper tuner) with 7# of boost. It's still on the stock fuel pump until next week (we ordered the wrong one).

Not bad, A/F stays between @ 11.5 or so and @ 12.1. Runs like stock until 3k RPM, which is good since it's a daily driver
Just wondering...if you know how much timing is in the car?? Your car has simular mods to mine and I just wonder how mine will stack up with a T72 vs what your car did at the same boost level.

Nice numbers though.

The Y, headers, and 4:10's I had done previously. Everything else listed came to just under $8k, that's including parts, shipping, install, tuning, and dyno time.

I'd have to ask F-Body Central. It's going in this week for the pump, so I'll hit 'em up.

Hey Mojo......just picked up my kit today. It's a GT67 though. 2kTransAm was hitting full boost by 3500-4000. 500rwhp at 5.5psi. Hopefully will be done by next Friday. I gotta get Granny to tune it.

Sweet! Lemme know how she does!

I'm debating dropping to a GT67, and shelving the 76 until I get some engine mods done. Looking like they may not come in as soon as I'd hoped
