help on horsepower gains
#7
Well...if you have a 300 I would just suggest getting either headers or cat-back exhaust, make yourself a bfi, buy a SAFC-II, and get it dynotuned. There really isnt much you can do to push out more power from the motor without a turbo. I guess you could go with new cams and cam gears but unless you want to rebuild the engine then I would just say go TURBO.

Mods should lock this thread, this is getting out of hand on the forums.

Bolt ons will not give you any impressive gains over stock. You will gain power from things like intake and exhaust. The only way to get really noticable power is to add some type of FI setup. Building the motor is another option. But it is probably cheaper to go with FI.

Change out entire exhaust, install a BFI intake, and install and fine tune an ECU Piggy back.....that about covers everything besides AFI (turbo,nos, supercharger) You can also change your cams and or differential gearing...but that is getting serious...Only one other way to call upon a good amount of power and that would be (NITROUS)...
