Dont take it to dyno, get someone who can street tune it on a wideband and Forget about renting a dyno.. Cheapest way I think

I thought you were looking for streetable? What is your definition of streetable?


I recommend Crower 403's and Pr3 Pistons! I dont know about street tuning I recommend dyno time regardless!


I need more info on what you are looking for out of this motor!

You should be able to attain 150whp with moderate bolt ons like a full exhaust, cams, cam gears, s-vafc, intake and T/B as well as a good manifold with a nice P/P.

If you are thinking of attaining 175-190 whp nothing less than a full high compression all motor set up will suffice, you have to change everything from pistons, connecting rods, crank; as well as careful choice in top end parts like your cams and cam gears.

All in all, like a few of the others. DYNO time will be invaluble, it will let you know where are standing before the mods and can prove to be the difference in proper tuning and half assing it. You should use the wideband and s-vafc to maintain and tweak an already tuned motor.
