Without breaking the bank? NOS. Bolt ons alone wont do it.

On another note, call SLP with your VIN on hand so you can get your build number. Then be sure to post up the info in the Firehawk owners thread in the special vehicles forum.

BTW,

To get things strait, are you look at make 400 RWHP or 400 fly wheel hp?

My thoughts exactly.

My 02 WS6 dynoed 321/331 stock, they're definately under-rated. 400 flywheel hp isnt hard to achieve. FYI, we go by rwhp around here.

Ahh yes, please post pics! And 400 hp is a piece of cake to hit, just be patient and don't go crazy at once!
