Out of curiosity... Where did it peak? What did you set your rev limiter at?

Dude, your SLP's are just as good and, as was mentioned above, better than most on the market.

It's true, as was mentioned above, that most shops don't like them because of the "pain in the ****" issue

40x rwhp out of a cam only car THROUGH cats is VERY impressive.

Just my opinion

Trust me guys, I am in no way, shape or form complaining. I'm really happy with the results. I just think there's more to be had.
Anyway, 388.8hp@6300

You're bitching about increasing your rwph from 309 to 388? I don't get it. On a Mustang dyno at that. Thru a stock MAF? **** I'd be happier than pig-in-****.

By the way, I also got one of the first set of SLP L/T. Still look like new.

How are you tuning your car - LS1 Edit?

Thanks!

Yes! A shift light will be your new best-friend.

I don't like to remember what life was like before I installed mine.

Ramair346,if you don't mind. What does APE charge for tuning. My car was dyno'ed there during a dyno day. I am going to have them tune my car after the TR224 and Jet-Hots are installed.Hopefully it will be close to your numbers.

I thought stainless steel doesn't rust. Thats the whole point of paying for stainless. Why are SLP's headers rusting?

Y2KAIR: I have cats on my car, so they had to install a bung for the o2 wideband, that was an extra $40. Total bill was $525. I've found that's what seems to be the going rate for a LS1 edit tune around here. They're all great guys at APE.

Crunch: I said that to SLP and here's what I remember from their explanation.. if there were any contaminents on the surface, it could create rust and they also had a problem with the company that did their coating. They were really cool about it and it sounds like they've discovered there was a problem and they're willing to correct it.
