I finally got it all installed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SLP lid,
SLP MAF
90mm NW TB
90mm Fast LSX intake manifold
AFR 205's
upgraded springs, push rods, and retainers
QTP long tube headers
QTP y-pipe w/high flow cats
Cut out/ flowmaster 3in 3 out 80 series catback
228/232 110+1 HR cam
yank 3200 stall
Strange 12 bolt rear end with 3:73's
After it is perfomance tuned, Im getting some ET streets and Im going to stop modding for a while... Can someone with a similar setup give me a rwhp estimate before I hit the dyno??

Thanks. I was going to upgrade the injectors but I was told by a couple of people not too. How would I be able to tell if the injectors needed to be upgraded... would the engine struggle at WOT at higher speeds????

You could use a Scanning tool such as HP tuners... Which probably wouldnt be a bad investment with all that money you just spent....

You can see what kind of Millivolts there pumping out... Then go from there...

I would assume the factory injectors can hold up to 450rwhp. With a good tune I should be around 425- 445 which is cutting it real close. I'm just going feel it out and see how my car responds to the new mods before I go spending any more money just yet.... DAMN THIS CAR IS FAST NOW WOOOHOOO!!!!!!!!!

I'd guess 425rwhp/410rwtq

I'd say you've got a solid 11 sec car there. How in the heck could you wait to install that all at once?!

Thanks, it was hard, but I really didnt have a choice. It took 2 months to get the strange rear end and QTP pipes. Plus the guys that installed it gave me a deal since it was easier to do it all at once. I already had everything but the heads, header, and cam in. It really woke up the 90/90 combo!

What are the lift numbers on that cam? That is a fairly large duration cam compared to the other ones I have seen with the AFR 205s (usually in the 224ish range). Those heads love big lift numbers!

Who told you that? Local people? I would use SVO 30lb injectors if I were you. Add them before you have your friend tune your car.

My set-up is almost identical to yours. AFR 205's milled .0020, 228/232 588/592 110+1 LSA, fast 90/ LS2 TB. I put down 440RWHP and 400 RWTQ (M6) WITHOUT an underdrive pulley or degreeing my cam. Plus, I have some crappy headers (TPIS) and that is more than likely why my TQ numbers are low. Getting these things corrected and Mamo velocity porting my intake, shooting for 455RWHP on stock LS6 shortblock.

Good Stuff.......impressive set-up!!!
