    some of you forget to realize other things cost more and have same results. they claim 35rwp for 1k a set of factory ported heads usually gain you 35rwhp, a set of aftermarket heads cost you twice as much and gain 50rwhp

    you spend anywhere from 300 to 1200 for headers and they gain 15 to 40 rwhp

    stuff isnt cheap period

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    well said, my situation is i want 500 rwhp ( total ) and i lack about 30-40 to wheels right now so if it takes me 1500.00 to gain the lacking rwhp i wanna gain then so be it i will spend the cash for it

    actually theres no other bolts on i can possibly get except a new cam spected out, which i will eventually to the new intake.

    skeet...not to hijack thread, but how do you like that auburn pro series? My guy says that's the one he wants to throw in my truck.
    blown transmissions are about as useful as 97% of the guys on this forum

    i personally like it alot, but i do have one issue and i torque more on the drivers side than on the passenger side, if i was to buy a new one i would go with the detriot tru track.. for equal torque on boh sides.. but it yet fail

    Not sure where your set-up could GAIN an additional 500 RWHP. Guess where there is a will there is a way. Wouldn't that pretty much double your numbers? I think that would take some sort of big time F/I.
