hot damn... you my friend are going to have some serious fun. No intercooler? I bet you could probably turn up the boost a bit more with the forged internals~ did you get new rods? retainers?

Plus no new injectors? The stock injectors are good for about 300 wheel HP at MOST. You are gonna blow a hole in your new pistons running on stock injectors.

Get some 550's or 600's and a REAL way to tune that motor. The SAFC is the automotive equivalent of Sloth from The Goonies. Sure he does the job, but in a VERY ugly way. Any kind of piggyback ECU will be tricking the stock computer and when the inputs don't match up, it will get angry. "HEY YOU GUUUYYYYSSSS!"

You went all out up to the point where you save the motor from popping, then cheaped out. Get some real tuning(Power FC, AEM, Haltech, SDS, etc...) and some bigger injectors and you can hit 325 no problem. Check out www.DeatschWerks.com

i agree... i missed that he was only using the stock injectors and safc for fuel... i usually think of safc's for minor adjustments
