John,
Great Post! Id like to add to it that in Ben's case if he did the headwork first he definately would not have seen that much gain until he freed up the exhaust and intake charges.
Most of us who have bolted on exhaust systems, computer upgrades, air intakes and other items, all the while throwing in dollars from here and there that the wife doesn't know about, do realize that headwork is the next logical step for BOLT ON performance. But for the novice out there who is amazed and somewhat intimidated by the thought of peeling the heads off of his/her viper, headwork is usually left as the final BOLT ON. Actually it works out for the best as the owner has the opportunity to drive the vehicle through the advances in power and is ready when the decision is made to add the 60 or so extra hp that headwork provides.
I look forward to joining in on the cylinder head upgrade market in the near future.......as with nitrous injection, WOW! the gains should be tremendous.
Take care,
Tom
