heads and cams? what HP should I get

Right now I have inake, 17%pulley and Fireballed software. I would like to get head and cam but not sure what I would pay with parts and labor and what HP and TQ I could gain. I'm sure I will do the OBX header next week because it is so cheap.

call a reputable tuner such as webb motorsports or m7 to name just 2 . tell them what numbers you want for what you want to spend, they will then direct you . buying a mishmash of parts may not get the best results for the money you lay down. you'll probably get the header first but they may have a combo in mind for you . and don't be surprised if it's not just stuff they sell . they will recommend the best .

Most heads are pulling 15- 25 Wheel HP after all the pulley/exhaust/programing mods..( Highly modified engines can see up to 35-45 WHP) most cams are seeing a 5-10 HP gain !!

We just pulled over 200 Wheel HP in 98* temp and STOCK intercooler with our head !! Low to mid increased thru the entire rpm range!! ( 04 mods/shark/cold air/15%/2%/catback STOCK INTERCOOLER) Head will put you at where you want to be..!!

We have actually done three heads that are running on the TurboKompressor kits we've installed here. We can build you a head for the twincharge set up that is very impressive. Of course, all the heads we send out are very impressive, but I am biased .

Hope that helps,
Randy
