[CL9] In search of horsepower

[DreadAngel]

Ive tried to balance out everything, rbc, cai > lightened fly wheel and 4-2-1 headers. i want a good all rounder. hopefully after my flashpro comes in and tune my power band will be smoother. atm car is lacking in bot-mid range torque. i will post up a dyno b4 and after once done.,

What cams were you looking at though? When all said and done, the main influence on a NA car's power/torque band and delivery are the cams. You can sort of cover the loss of bottom end torque with a good tuner/ecu but when you're going big cams, all civility is gone out the window [Idle, Low End, Economy, etc]. Obviously it's all relative =P

One question to ask yourselves though... Is it worth taking your Euro past simple bolt-ons and a tune? Unless you treasure your Euro and want to make it into something big, keep it strictly at that step, buy the car you really want to get big performance out of. Not to put a damper on it or what not and I know Euro's have potential but you gotta go pretty hardcore to get it really shifting.
