agree or not agree.....

I'm thinking with the new upcoming mod's of Psi-Fi 18psi upgrade, header, CAI intake, and 2 1/2 to 3 inch cat-back I was thinking we would hit around the 300 whp range? Agree or not agree..I break it down like this..

Stock around 205 whp

header - 15-25whp
CAI intake - 10-15whp
Cat-back 2 1/2 to 3 inch - 10-20whp.
Psi-Fi kit - 40whp-60whp

Wait, I cant do math. Hahahaha Oh well give me your input..

Hp makes no difference if you can't get off the line. add the LSD and I agree.

lsd..

ok ive heard all but good things about lsd..is it really THAT good? is it worth $2000?! what does it allow you to do..have almost no wheel spin when you take off..can you just rev up higher like to 5 or 6000 rpms and drop the clutch..this is really interesting and agitating me at the same time...and how much time will it take off you race times?

lets see.. you will be able to get off the line with less wheel hop, you can accelerate through turns better, I belive we can get a helical lsd so it will help with acceleration/braking. Since you will be able to hook up, you should shave 0.2-0.5 tenth's of a second off your quarter mile. Also your tires in the front will wear evenly! You can launch higher, possibly 3k - 3.5k rpm, right now I cant launch clean with anything above 2,000rpm. there is so many pro's to a LSD it's not even funny. It's really worth the $2k.

Those hp expectations seem a little optimistic. I'd say that, less the Psi-Fi mods, we'd be at approx. 230hp. The exhaust is pretty good to start with & a CAI won't do much. I'm not certain what Psi-Fi's kit will include but unless it's $1k-$2k, we're probably lookin' at about 30hp there, maybe a little more in addition to the other listed mods. I agree that an LSD is priority, otherwise you're just making a lot of noise & darting left & right when you launch.

6Psi should net us more than 30hp.
