Default 10 to 15rwhp possible?

I'm trying to get another 10 to 15rwhp before I touch the heads...do u guys think it would be possible with changing my Mac ORP to a 2.5" true dual setup and adding a ASP pulley ( assuming I can find one )?

TIA

Alex

Yeah, I think so. People swear by 5-10 RWHP from the pulley. I myself do not have any experience with one. I think the true duals will help you out alot as well, all of the freakishly high dynoing cars have true duels it seems. If that does not work you could switch to LTs like hookers or FLPs and you would reach your goal.

Good luck,
-Nick

Based on your sig you're using an MTI lid (unless it really is a one-off lid developed at MIT :p ). Have you considered switching to one of the TSP lids? I've seen a couple dynos now where folks have picked up ~7rwhp over one of the standard lid designs (i.e. Whisper, MTI, etc) with no other changes. Might get you closer to your goal for very little $$...
