Default MTI Heads and Cam???

Please advise!
I am thinking about putting MTI's Stage 2e ported heads, x1 cam 230/227 .592/.571 112, Fast 90mm intake, fast 90mm tb, Mti underdrive pulley, qtp or kooks lt headers with bassani true dual exhaust. Heads are going to be fully preped with vavle the hole 9yrds! Questions 1.Am i going to need to mod the fuel system i.e injectors, maf, and fuel pump?If so What to what? 2. how aggressive is this set up really going to be? 3. What kind of horsepower with this make?? Thanks guys Really Lokk forward to your responses Sincerely josh B P.s It going on a 02 ss, m6 with 6800miles on it

Wow low miles

Fuel pump and MAF are fine. Injectors will probably be fine. When MTI dynos the car you can measure the injector pulsewidth and see if you need to upgrade to SVO 30lb injectors.

Your ride will be transformed.

MTI packages are well proven. MTI2e heads kick ***. But...why dont you call MTI and get their feedback on how well it will perform and what else you need?

How do other ported LS1 heads compare to MTI's? I've been looking into them myself (also looking at TEAs), but they seem pricey.

Wow is right

the only thing your should watch out for, like Ragtop said, is the injectors. Otherwise, you're fine.

how would you guys compare the 2e heads over say tsp prc heads, or afr for the money? i hear sometimes the 2e flow well, and sometimes they dont flow well? cuz im looking into doing the 2e/x1 myself. but if i had to get better heads i would though.
