Possible to get 450-500hp with heads, cam and my current combo?
Possible to get 450-500hp with heads, cam and my current combo?
Just like the title asks. With my current mods (sans the magnaflo, now running a true dual) would I be able to hit somewhere in the 450 to 500 hp range. A friend of mine just picked up a 02 TA with a Procharger so it is game on. After looking at all that is involved with the boost I would much rather stay NA and achieve my goal. I am also planning on getting a dyno tune after the install.
Any suggestions on a combo?
TIA

Check this thread on another board. Page 2, about 1/2 way down. The screen name is pushinfreight. 443 HP. His setup is close to yours with heads and cam.

The club/board is sponsored by a shop in Tampa. This is typical of thier work. They have an in house f-body tuner named Jeremy that can tweek the modded cars for all they are capable of and keep them safe. People bring in C5's from Miami and the rest of the State for the special touch they get at RX.
See ya around,

there are alot of guys making 420-430hp on stock internals with just a 230ish cam and stg2 heads and the associated boltons and tune.
that's almost 500hp at the crank.

I have 436/420 at the wheels and my heads/cam was done by Mike Norris who is in Ocala, FL. I wouldn't want to drive my car EVERY day, but I could. FWIW, I still have a Y-pipe set-up and am missing a few bolt-ons...
Re: Possible to get 450-500hp with heads, cam and my current combo?
450and up is definitely possible with h/c setup, just takes a lot of tuning and custom work. 500 is tough to do without some kind of forced induction, but it's been done. $$$$$
