Damn!!! Why did you have to ask... I am not like others who will not tell the truth.. I was going to go with another set of heads, but a friend of mine name Brandon talked me into letting him send my 5.7L heads to TEA for that CNC deal they were running.. My heads were also milled by Brandon while he was at TEA. Milled .040. Brandon also told me he had time to get a valve job and he also blended in the valves. Brandon also assembled my heads and installed the 918 springs.. The killer is these heads flow less than my old heads peak, but kill my old heads below .500 lift. All on stock valves.. Now I need tuning.. The car behaves and drives totally different than my old setup. Even with the big difference in compression. My new heads are better.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> So I have to give thanks to Brandon and TEA. No more Blow Techs!!! The real question is.. Do I have the right cam for my current heads? Can I call my current heads a Stage 1 or not?

I agree that if the car doesn't run in the low 11's at around 120mph, the dyno #'s are a little off. I have always thought of the dyno as a tuning tool-not as a way to compare two different
setups. With that small of a cam, I think it would take a pretty light car to run well. I have seen the combo in a couple local cars and it seems to work well-Ta2slow's car went 11.30@119
with a similar setup-raceweight unknown???

TA2slow's car had the exact same setup as i do now. As said before that track time that was posted was with a dead O2 sensor in one bank resulting in the other bank reading way rich. The problem was recently fixed, but all local tracks are closed for the year. <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />

why do people continue to call bs on stupid ****? is it to make you feel better about you car? are you jealous that you arent running the times he is, or putting down the numbers he is. some cars are fast from the factory, get over it. i seen stock headed (A4) cars put down 385-395 RWHP, in chicago DA too. dont go calling bs because you think its impossible.

I also have a real hard time believing the #'s!!
I pulled 365hp and 385 tq. From an 02 z28, pt4000, TEA stg. 2's, TR224 cam and more....
I may be able to get another 20 hp or so once tuned...but man with that cam, thats REAL high...
but again anything is possible??
