Cheaper to Boost... I know because I have investigated this route myself...

Now if you go with long tube headers you will beable to push your RWHP #'s higher but still won't reach 320 on a Dynojet or Mustang dyno.

Edit: If your believe AH's #'s then your CooCoo for Coco puffs!!! LMFAO

Best of luck man

SGM is making nearly 350whp with all stock internals (including heads/cylinder heads e.t.c.) and this is on a older DE. I say its doable as long as you know what your doing.

How many times have you done any sort of organized HPDE? Just curious. It doesn't seem like you have had much track time.

You may want to rethink your "planned" mods carefully. Most organizations will not let you run with nitrous on the track (enlighten me if there are any that do). Furthermore, E-town has a small roadcourse. Depending on the layout, adding boltons will not be very useful. Suspension and tires would get you much further.

Ohhhh boy...
SCCA will be there several times this year. Good place to start.

SGM is also running motec and other bits the average Joe can't get. It isn't fair to compare a car whose most expensive power mod is test pipes to a legit racecar. With all the R&D SGM has gone through, I bet Sasha could **** in his own gas tank and figure out a way to make another 10hp with it.
