Yeah, I agree. Maybe 100 hp shot of nitrous.

Now your talkin...I got to 320 rwhp and 334 RWTQ N/A...I got those #'ers with: JBA Long Tube Headers, JBA off-road H-Pipe, Magna-Pack's, C&L intake w/ custom (Dyno tuned) 93 octane tune and an LFP T/B. Considering I started at 260 RWHP that's a gain of 60 rwhp...Not to bad in my book but it does cost ya, as does anything performance related. I kept most of my parts w/ my Saleen S/C and sold the rest to recover cost's which worked out well. It just depends on how far you want to go I guess.

I'm sorry you don't consider that any real gains, because you'd be amazed at the difference those mods make to your car. I'm not sure if you were thinking someone on here would come back saying that you can get the same amount of horsepower as a supercharger but you're not. I gained anywhere between 43 and 53 horsepower on those mods and I can't really think of any other way to do that besides supercharging or running nitrous. On top of that if you're planning on running a supercharger, you're going to want to do a lot of the mods you listed.

With those exact mods on a set of BFG Drag Radials 275/40 17" I ran a 12.691

With the addition of a set of 4.10 gears I bettered it to 12.461.

This was in good Canadian air. LOL DA was -891'

I was also running Steeda Road Race Suspension which isn't ideal for drag racing.

If you want big power, go with a blower. However, you don't want 4.10s if you have a blower, that's just too short of a gear. I'm planning on getting the KB and I am keeping my 3.55 gears.

I guess we'll just have to disagree on that one.
