-340 on 93

things that are stock
ignition, intake mani, throttle body, cams, vavle train, cam gears

whats the best bang for buck before my next tune?

 

what are you asking, what is the best thing u can buy for more power? if so

intake,throttle body

if you have the money, valvetrain,camshafts would also make a nice impact

angle job and port and polish will also add great flow volume

 

ty, anyone else

 

if you can get one item as state above.... get the intake manifold. a JG Edelbrock manifold. ROughly cost 300dollars. great bang for the buck

 

Cams by far. Some ITR cams and cam gears and retune it and you'll see 20-30 WHP and tons of midrange.

 

I made 400whp & 300ft lbs on a b16 w/stock im and tb.

Cams and gears would be a good benefit and if $$ permitting grab the edlebrock im.

Other than that..have fun.

 

20-30hp? How much power though was that setup making in the end though? This sounds like a stock engine guy here.

 

im shoot for a victor x, not a big fan of the stock gsr intake manifold

 

I don't see the point in an edlebrock with stock GSR. That's just me though. I'd go with something like the type R. (skunk2) I dunno who else makes manifolds anymore. Cam gears are cheap, and a good tuner will be able to do well with them.

 

I was just thinking, I upgraded coolers from a custom 2.5" to a precision 600whp 3" setup and my im from stock to the edlebrock..and I gained 50whp @ the same boost level...all the way up from 9psi to 21psi.

Something to keep in mind.

You also went from a Dynojet to a Dynapack.

 

^^ Good point, try to keep your results consistent here guys.

Honestly, for the price I would pick up a Blox Intake Manifold. Do a little research on how these products and their design features will change the performance of your car.

 

I would probably get type r cams and IM (blox or skunk2).

But i would invest in some traction bars or LSD before going for more power. That's if you don't have any already.

Wtf? Who are you to tell me where my car was tuned ??

Initial tune was on a dynojet. Went to a dyno day @ my tuners a few months later put down 8 less whp on the dynopak. Then it was RETUNED on the SAME dynopak which netted 450whp.
