You could rid yourself of alot of heat by removing the cats...at least go high flows...when your side sill are off, check out the stocker cats...a 24" restriction on either side of your exhaust...

Think if you took some fiberglass insulation, and packed 24" of it right into your pipes, on each side...Not exactly the same, but very similar...Not to mention they are heavy...very heavy...


Have I talked you into it??? At least high flows???

With your mild mods you will probably pull around 410-425RWHP.

If you are in a strict emissions-sniffing state like mine, pulling the cats is not an option, but high flow cats are great.
They can gain a little power, but the BIG advantage is much cooler side sill temps.

I put in Sean Roe oval high flow cats, along with smooth tubes, S&B filters, roller rockers, the VEC1, and a Corsa cat back, and got my numbers shown below.

The car is not too loud and passed smog with no problems.

Wow! That's a pretty good gain. Did you by chance try running with the VEC1 turned off to see how much it was contributing?

Actually, I wasn't at the dyno shop. I'll let you know when I pick the car up. Maybe tomorrow ? I might just leave it there until Wednesday when the NOS is going in.

The 415RWHP is right in the ballpark. The 447RWHP with the exhaust and VEC-1 is excellent.
I'm guessing around 575RWHP with the 150 shot.
Depending on weather and tuning.

Made 548 RWHP with the 150 shot today (the dyno room was 98 degrees inside)
It made 688 foot pounds of torque also.

When it cools down a bit I will dyno it again. Should make around 570-580 with over 700 lbs. of torque
