Not thinking about traction or supporting mods as i have them already but wondering aside from my current mods

2.8"
60's
meth
full 3" exhaust
injen

whats something i can do to make a decent amount more power? say in the $300-$500 range

 

Header (if you don't already have one)
Cams (if you already have a header)

Other than that, the cylinder head is the next bottleneck, and it's a HUGE one at that.

 

full 3" exhaust means cat-back, dp and header

thinking bout some custom ground cams

 

Full 3" is a catback in my mind, I don't see too many headers with 3" primaries

Yeah, next step in the $500 range would be some cams and valvesprings. Rev that sucker to 8k. Then pick up a bare head and have a race port done on it, throw some SS valves in it. When it's ready to go in, pull your cams/valvesprings, assemble the new head and you'll be over 300whp

 

definetly a possiblity! any other ideas any1?

 

Nitrous. 75 wet shot, tune for it and pull timing for it if required.

 

Yep, you can always spray. I'm not a fan, that's why I didn't bother to list it

 

n00bz....

 

for a good set-up thats over $500

 

OTT stage 1. $490 + shipping.

 

please re-read post#1

 

Meh.

I'm probably $530 into my complete setup. That's the bottle warmer, gauge, solenoids, lines, the whole 9 yards. I don't have a purge kit or a remote bottle opener, but IMO are waste of money.

 

reading>me. i thought you were interested in 2.8,60's,ect. when you already have them. WOT box and 2step?

 

I would shoot for some lightweight pulleys OR p&p intake manifold OR CX Big H/E

Thats really it as far as power adders go. I would get a WOT box, but thats not really giving you any power. You said you were going for some solid mounts, so thats another step in the right direction. 3" intake will be nice to support your LS4. I dunno, just my $.02

 

i have a cobra h/e. i can get a RAW 3" for 225 was thinking about that. i picked up the solid mount last night for $75!!!

 

I'm tellin you man, cams and then save for headwork. 50whp from a ported head on a stock car is insane.

 

you need to wheelhop and spin more.

now answer your other pm

 

This would definately be my next move for you Chris, I mean its going to run you 1,500 to 2K, but this will seal the deal on your car. Youll be like 1 of 20 or so guys that has full headwork. Keep up the good work man. Car is doing great!

 

easy there syp

 

ok then here is my answer-

NAAAAAAAAAWWWSSSSSSSSSS

 

hmm i'm gonna have to read up on what kinda springs, retainers, and valve work is best suited for a m62 car and go from there

true. but it would be awesome to get 300whp on the m62 w/o pushing it hard and no n2o

 

I'm in the same boat as you. I'm wanting to get over 300 w/out NAAAWWSSSSSSS.

 

man it sucks doesnt it

i mean doing suporting mods is no fun i want powa oh i have most supporting mods all i need are some drag bags

 

Awesome and very hard to do , obviously juice is the biggest abng for them buck, cams would not be a good idea rate now becuase of the supporting mods. I would look into a few more cooling mods maybe stu's or a single pass then go to a 2.7"

 

Yea it does suck. I'm running right now
2.7"
60s
Vib header dp and full 2.5" catback
CAI
water/meth @ 70/30 mix
cobra H/E
tranny mounts and TD
ported/polished blower

I've considered drag radials and bumping my meth to 100% but i dunno yet.
