RMW tune

I'm thinking about getting a remote tune from RMW, if I upgrade to 380cc injectors would this make a difference in how much gains I would see? Right now I have an alta 17% pulley,CAI, invidia CBE and the MSD ignition pack from alta. I emailed Jan and told me I would see any where from 8-30 HP gain and 5-12 TQ. Not to sure if I wanna spend $700 for 8hp and 5tq. Any help on insight here would be greatly appreciated. I would love to hit at least 210 WHP , how do I get there?

What does "subscribing like mine" mean?

Im also thinking of getting an rmw remote tune almost same mod as yours but i already have the 380cc injectors and an rmw headers. Hopefully it can get to 200-210hp. 200whp will be great

With your current mods you will need the 380 injectors before getting a tune. You should be right at 200whp with a tune.

lots of dyno sheets show 220-230whp with RMW headers, cam, and a tune. Those three are on my wish list.

Yup....
I did 200 hp ....with a great tq gain....with a 100% stock exhaust on a 100°+f dyno day..
And remember....the stock numbers are to the crank...the dyno numbers are to the wheels. Biggest improvement, IMO, is a smoother engine....and tweaked DSC.
