2.4 Performance
Well consider my 159whp on a mustang w/ I/E/T and GTP's 168whp dynojet w/ I/T I think its very possible. CA's header dynoed 10-12 at the wheels on a stock 2.4. And the cams JBP made for the 2.2 eco's in the cav's they gained 26whp. With those two added with a re-tune i think we will hit 200whp. So yes its all estimating now, but educated estimating 
. Well have to really wait for G5mike's dyno's after the cam install and tuning.

The 2.4 SS is a great value for the money. I got mine for a little under 17k with the GMS discount. I had a 2.2 loaner and test drove the SS/SC 4 times. The 2.2 is not bad for what it is. The SS/SC was fun, but in my opinion not worth the price difference between the 2 SS's. I love my 2.4- the handling is really good, the looks are great, and the power is not bad at all. I can beat most comparable cars that I race. The price was the deciding factor for me.
hey sean....just to give you an idea... the c/a header was also tested on a 2.4 hhr... 10whp gain on a stocker.... and you know you gonna have to let me mess with that thing...
oh yeah it was 6 motors in two weeks ... .2 tranny's 9 axles and one other thing I can't remember... thats just the L.I count as of this month..... and sean... you never ran me... you wound't have stand a chance... hahahaha j/k man/// let me know when your getting this thing... I drove one at the revitup event and I was suprised how quick it actually was... def a fun car

. Well have to really wait for G5mike's dyno's after the cam install and tuning.well you can't just add mod gains on top of eachother because they willa ll work together. i can see 200whp with cams, but again cams are NOT a bolt on. i can easily see you guys dipping into 14's with cams, but saying you will have 200whp with just bolt ons (no cams) seems a little farfetched to me.
Check out this link:

Here's a 2.4l auto that ran 15.3 w/o a header. I think there's a lot of hidden potential there.
so what if he doesn't have a header? he has most of the bolt ons that give decent power and ran a 15.3...with those mods that should be around 15.7ish stock. i just really don't see a 15 flat stock, .7 seconds is ALOT in racing.
by the way.. this is a thread to see whats available for the car... you wanna argue and ****... start a new thread about it...
thank you...
back to the topic at hand
NO2?... HAHAHHAa

As a car audio installer, you should know that it's not that big of a deal to install a remote start on a manual transmission car. There are only a couple more wires to hook up than there is for an automatic car.
As an ex installer myself for about 10 years, I know from experience.

dynojets you'll see around 155ish. Mustang dyno's are more 140-145. I dynoed 148 on a mustang with Intake and axleback exhaust only. The exhaust is 2.5" until it reaches the rear axle where it shrinks to 2.25 and into the muffler.
