ok so im going to be putting some $$$$ into my car in the near future and i would like to know some things... ie. what numbers will i be seeing for the $$$ im going to be putting into it...

- cam (dunno what size a little smaller than 273)
- headers (long tubes)
- and a good dyno tune
- 52mm throttle body

what will i get with that???

then what if i added some good heads?

tks!

 

well a good cam kit 600.00
headers r bout 500.00
t-b bout 400.00
heads bout 1500.00


all power in the end priceless

 

Maybe for some coated pacesetters and that's not going to include your y-pipe and certainly not cats if you want to run them. Anything else though expect to pay upwards or beyond $800 especially if you keep emissions to pass visual. Plus hardly anything ever just bolts right in so expect some modification.

As for the throttle body, you could just have your stock port matched to the intake probably for about $100 and shipping if I had to guess. And that would probably be good almost to 375rwhp before I would think it'd be a restiction.

As far as numbers with such a vague request at parts.... I suppose maybe 300rwhp with an exhaust and intake. Maybe 325-350 rwhp with cam, springs, and rockers. After that you'll need some better flowing heads, and anything after that will all be in your tune and that will cost you as much $$ as you want it on the dyno tweaking it...

My numbers might be on the optimistic side as well... as I have't been to these points yet. Also save money for a rebuild or for opti-failure, and be prepared to track down many, many gremlins.

I'm sure more people will chime in...

 

I'd say for everything to do a cam install correctly expect close to a grand.
Headers, plug wires, and O2's I'd say 6-700 depending upon brand.
TB would be about 2-300 depending upon size/brand.
A tune is about $150 if you don't have a cable.
