Default Quick question...MTI X1 or Speed Inc SI007...
for an '04 GTO. Daily driver.

stock heads, stock intake
TCI MaxEffort 3200 stall
Longtubes, no cats, stock catback
Stock gears (3.46s)

I can get a good deal on either...which would you pick?

SI007 cam has smooth idle, its not all about peak numbers, however it has pushed 440rwhp in 2002 Z06 with hand ported and milled Rich Groh 243 heads.

I've seen numbers range from 365rwhp-400rwhp, in automatic GTOs using SI007 cam.
