I don't see a lot of talk about specific HP gains on these cars. It looks like you've done what you could as far as HP goes and I wonder how much HP gain that's created. Anyone know?
Seems like when posts are made about exhausts and/or intakes, the talk is all about the sound it makes instead of power gains and I know that's because the sounds are more significant than the actual gains..
I'm still curious as to power though...
Estimated gains for all power mods are as follows
Exhaust: ~7hp
Intake: +/- ~5hp (depending on which intake you get)
Midpipe: ~2hp
Headers: ~20hp
Supercharger: ~60hp
I've got ppe headers, custom exhaust, custom intake, mapecu3 tuner, polished TB and lower intake manifold.
Running a safe afr around 12.2 at redline I'm putting down 298whp and 278tq. I've also bumped timing about 4 degrees starting from 4500rpm to redline. It seems to like it.
the gains became impressive when the headers were installed
& when the light weight wheels were installed
overall im pleased with gains

I'd say you guys should just go take your cars to the drag strip now & see what kind of times you'd run. You guys will probably post up some of the better numbers since not too many people here have PPE headers. Report back & do us proud ...don't forget about the sticky tires!
