Hmm...you might also need a FAST 90/90 intake to reach 450rwhp.

Just curious,if your current tuner cant tune your 224 cam to your liking,how is he goona tune a much more radical G5X3 ??? It however is a badass cam ,but needs a very good tune to make it streetable.

Your concern might be more PTV oriented. Darts have bigger valves.

I have a G5X3 on a 114 for sale. Brand new (using a G5X4 instead). It's yours for $400 shipped.
