I only drive the car on nice days (mostly weekends). It is not my daily driver and will never see track use.

My car right now sits at 375hp/365tq with only a B&B Bullet Catback & Factory GM Tune. I would like to make 440-450hp.

i would stay with the mods you have but maybe the only difference would be not the g5x4 and go with a ms4 kit from tsp instead b/c i have been seeing them make more power than the g5x4. also go with a 12 bolt and if money is not a huge factor go with a fast 90/90 combo. if you dont want to go with that and something smaller you could always hit it with some juice

Yeah, 12 bolts are for f-bodys, and the G5X4 is deff not a bad cam. Its just the MS4 is the newer of the two and thats the only numbers you hear about.
