read this link. you can get close to 350 rwhp without a power adder.

Thats pretty impressive. I want to do cams, springs, and new keepers to mine.

I agree, I would love to have new cams and ported heads. Does anyone know what just that mod or Cams and a CAI kit will get you? (I understand you have to retune, so please don't tell me you have to tune with either or both I know and think that is almost a required mod with anything on our S197's)
think about this.
FAST is coming out with a new intake manifold that is supposed to give impressive gains. the first word was 40hp, but i bet it wont be close to that. say it is 20, cams(30), and intake(20-25) you might get a good 75rwhp or close to 90 crank hp. these three together plus some long tubes and UDP and cmcv deletes will get close to 100 RWHP gains.
like said brenspeed got 347 RWHP without the new intake manifold. If it does produce 20whp that will put them at almost 370 rwhp which equals 100rwhp gains over a stock 270whp and a power rating equal to that of the roush mustang stage 3. I would love to see the look on a roush SC owners face when they get taken by an NA 3V. it would also be lighter than the roush, yet the roush would win in a road race. Their suspenion setup is 1k, so might as well get that too.
and if you opted for roushes drag suspenion they have you might peak into the high 11's all motor.
In good time the NA cars will be very respectble and will beat the C6 vette hands down. And the look on thier face when you tell them there is no supercharger will be priceless .
And we will be like this and this
then you tell them "yeah i paid 27K for my car, how much as yours?"
Althought the cost of these parts will put you easily over 4k plus the install and tune charges you are looking at over 5 grand for what a blower can get you an extra 50 hp easy over that. thats why blowers are the "better" option if you want serious power.
I personally would go with an NA motor if the cost was the same, but it's not. My goal is to beat my dad's M5 he's getting this summer. lucky guy. I guess i will have to outdrive him at the drag track once i am done modding. drag radials may put me out ahead once the modding is done.
thats too much bench racing for me. you cant just add up all the numbers and assume thats what you will get.
