3.73 gears, Underdrive Pullies, C&L Racer intake on 93 Octane boxed race tune, Hurst shifter, Steeda Competition springs, Steeda billet LCAs, LCA relocation brackets, 255 Goodyear Eagle F1 A/S tires.

With a mild burnout on a well prepped drag strip, front tires aired to 50psi, rears about 2psi above cold rating, I pulled a 1.83 60' and a 13.19 quarter.

I moved my rev limiter to 6400 RPM with a DiabloSport tuner. Shift at about 5900 RPM and go to 4th at the line.

Since then I lightened the driveline (14.4lb flywheel and aluminum one-piece driveshaft), got RE-11 Bridgestone tires (street/autocross tires), and I'm hoping for 12.90s.

I also have a WRX (2011) and it's tough that my "fun" car has a hard time beating up on my daily driver.

hey guys what is better the comp thumpa or ford racing hot rod cams or is it worth it to go and get cams that need new springs and stuff

Legend Lime 06

ok lol. should i go CAI, cams, o/d pulleys, 4.10 gears, and a throttle body, or FFRP intake, cams, CAI, and 4.10 gears. or should i just spend the extra like 1000 to 1500 and supercharge with a CAI. and the supercharger would be the non intercooled vortech which says makes 420 hp and 385 torque. would i get close to the same gains with my N/A choices?

Get the blower. The best NA cams are brenspeed Detroit rockers. These motors are turds without boost. Trust me, I have full bolt ons lol.

Imatk

A blower is going to net you the most horsepower/torque for the least amount of coin.

Up front it costs more, but doing full bolt-ons etc. etc. still won't get you close to what you can do with a blower.

Now if you go crazy with the boost on the blower then you'll likely be buying a new clutch soon so keep that in mind as well

Legend Lime 06

then where is the place to buy a used m90 full kit lol cuz i am not spending 5600 for a new one when i can get the vortech power from bolt ons and save like two grand lol

Legend Lime 06

does anyone know anything about the paxton or vortech superchargers that are not intercooled? are they a good idea or do they blow up cuz of getting to hot? anything helps cuz looking at the vortech one but buying a intercooler and setting that up and get some more power but wanna stay under five grand

Buy whatever you can. (within your budget) if you can find a used kit make sure everything works.

Imatk

You're not going to get vortech power from bolt ons.

Good luck.

Legend Lime 06

it says the kit makes 420 to the flywheel and you think there is no way i can get 390 to the wheels with cams, cai, throttle body, tuner, and intake and lt headers.

Ibnzmonkey

No. Plus all that garbage will cost you more than a tuner centri kit.

muscledom

He could get close. But the tune would be on the ragged edge.

Imatk

Doubtful... and a lot more work than doing a blower.

05GTJOSH

Keep it stock and then later buy a mustang with a stock s/c or a car with one already on it. Or buy a new 5.0 and you won't need one because of the horsepower increase. Save your money and enjoy the stang.

Legend Lime 06

so just to give me a little fun i am thinking 4.10 gears, CAI and maybe just maybe cams but all after i get back from basic and ait thank you guys

muscledom

What ever you get, don't get ***** thumprs. Sound awesome, minimal performance gain. Google cars that Kris Starnes has built and get what they got

JerryG2163

I like the hot rod cams

Victorfriessen

Well they do what they do but the AIT goes above 140 and the car starts pull the timing because of the heat and that will make you slower but its only when you do a few Wot runs,but they dont give you a wow feature,spend the extra and get the paxton intercooled,you will be happier

Victorfriessen

I couldnt decide to go carried away with bolt ons or go supercharged,So I went and did both jaja

Legend Lime 06

can you buy the non intercooled and then intercool them like just buy the piping and the intercooler or is it a totally different set up?
