what size wheels you got? get a powerbox (mantzel , dbilias) surpose to give a 22bhp increase!

Bollocks.

I have a mantzel, it's no way a 22BHP increase. But, it does help. I was running a mantzel, de-cat and 4-2-1 manifold and rinsed a local GSI.

lmao chrome and carbon dont give u bhp ...

Cams - No point unless u get verniers and a re-map

Why not save ur 3-400 notes and buy loads of maxpower stickers or a manifold

2 1/2 inch bore exhaust wont be helping. will probably be losing backpressure and torque

All after market inlets will work and u will notice a massive power gain at higher rev's ... But to get the most out of the inlet, a raised limiter is in order

I have a dbilas dynamic (expensive) and getting the rev limiter done v.v.v.soon
