Well, I just got my car back from my tuner. My current numbers were 343rwhp and 365tq. I installed a Paxton front mount, vortech mini race, and put on a 3.12 pulley. I was expecting a little higher numbers, but i'm still happy. I put out exactly 370rwhp, 380tq. I'm seeing about 11psi. The mean reason i went with such a small pulley is because next, i plan to do some crower stage 2 blower cams, which will drop my boost even more, and will save me the headache of having to change pulley sizes yet again. All in all, the car feels soooo much stronger down low now and definately worth the upgrade. Like I said, i plan to do cams next, which my tuner said is the biggest restriction on my car now and should yield me about 30rwhp. This will be the last mod i do for power, and finally a stall converter and my performance mods will be complete.....for now :banana:

thanks for the props guys! im really happy with the results.

I will eventually get to the spoiler, but honestly a spoiler is the least of my worries right now. before that i plan to finish maxing out my motor, building the rear, racing seats, suspension, and then ill get to it O0

Its just getting better and better O0

I bet you gain more then 30rwhp from those cams.

Before you decide or buy new cams you should consider what ones you want.
You could get the Crower ST2 NPI Blower cams or you could get the Crower offset retainers to use in your NPI heads and use Crower ST2 PI Blower Cams and make more power for just alittle more money. I've seen guys gain 60rwhp with those cams and they have a nice lope to them.

OOOO, i never thought of that. Only thing is, dont you think even say I only got 30rwhp from the non pi s/c cams that 400rwhp should be about it through an auto? I mean, i would love to gain 50 or even as you said 60rwhp from the crower's PI cams, but then i would be pushing upwards of 430-440rwhp...
