What mods can you do to..... The stock t/b and mass air? I like the look of factory. I dont want the hood to open up and scream race car. The car is a 97 Ramair T/A. What can you do the ram air set up also? I heard Ed Wright runs 9's on factory ram air. So I was just curious all to what you could do to make it as effective as possible.

Well thanks for your input. I guess I should have stated what is done to the car to even see if anything was even needed. The engine is a stock short block. Fully ported stock heads. 30# injectors Comp cam on a 113. 579int. 583exh. Pacesetter long tubes to a flowmaster with no cats.

As stated either ditch the flowmaster muffler or add an electric cut out.
Porting the intake might see a slight gain. Same with adding a 58mm TB and installing an EWP. You will want to retune your car afterward. Don't touch your MAF.
Some weight reduction goes a long way.
Other than that, consider getting a larger cam (which will require more rpm to effectively make more power) or add nitrous. Both of which would warrant a stoutly built 355+ block that can take rpms and n2o...
Horsepower costs $$$

Yeah I thought about the muffler. What is the better? As for the cam specs I have to find them. As for the NOS I do plan on hitting it after I get the 12 bolt in. As for weight reduction im really not sure what to take out. I enjoy driving it every where and love the A/C. As the car sits it weights 3620# with out me in it. Its kind of a lead sled for an F-body
