It's right at 7,800 now.

Love the 4.08's. Highly recommended.

I was running exhaust hfc and intakes with a tune. Made 300whp. Did not have headers. I wouldn't bother. If you want some HFC im selling mine. Or buy better gears instead will be much better off.

300 whp is not too tough on a HR (DynoJet). Intake, full exhaust and tune get you right about there. If anything, I would think his numbers may be a little under performing with cams.

That depends on your dyno. The first set of numbers on my dyno sheet are with CAI's, HKS catback and a tune. My stock dyno was 254.

How do you mean? Fuel economy is down a bit, but it's still easily driveable. Plus, it had just as much a "seat of the pants" feel as the 50 whp increase in engine mods I did.

Actually I typed that up wrong. I thought Jiggy and Ronin were referring to your car, and meant to suggested if anything your numbers seemed a bit conservative (Dyno-wise) in reference to the "Hapy Dyno" post. But I now see they were referring to kyle and their comments now make total sense.
