Trick flow top end, long tube headers, o/r x-pipe, Bassani or Magnaflow cat back, underdrive pulleys, 24lb injectors and maf, CAI, maybe throttle body and egr spacer. Should be around 350

Or supercharger/turbo.

just wondering how much better are the Fenderwell CIA's than the the little ones, i have a little one that was already on there and i was just wondering what the HP difference might be.

PS- Personally i like Mac but its all about what ya like and the tone. I took a lot of time looking on Youtube at different exhuast kits and Companies. If that helps any.

yeah thats what i heard too
I was just thinking is it worth the money to get a totally new one or not. In my opinion if the HP difference is only like 3HP to me i would rather just get an underdrive pulley or something else. But i was just wondering.

Btw i heard that Magnaflow porduces the more HP, i think Darrell told us that in another threat a while back. But if your looking to reach that goal of 350-370HP that might help just fyi. Btw what do ya have on your car now?

Oh and also with these mods i would look into getting a 190LPH fuel pump or maybe even 255LPH but i would assume 190 would be good.

Personally they are not my favorite, but ive never had them myself, just done a little bit of research here and there and comments from people on them so i cant give you 1st hand xp. Hopefully someone else will chime in here shortly.

Btw You want to keep shorties? Now would be a good time to switch to long tubes ( suppose to get a little more HP out of them ) Just to let you know.

not alot of difference in the equal length shorties and the long tubes and the shorties are alot easier to install .....the fenderwell cold intake is better cause the air outside the engine compartment is alot cooler than the air inside that you are taking in right now...

Damn, i forgot this, definitely need a bigger fuel pump. The way i see it, no point getting anything else than 255lph, price difference i basically nothing, and theres room to grow.
