RWHP/RWTQ: 539/499 Peak HP was around 6200 and fell almost 100hp by the time it hit 7k.. Trying to find the culprit behind that still..

I just ordered an 8-rib kit and a 2.7RR pulley today! So as soon as I get them put on, ALIGNED PROPERLY this time and take the car to the dyno I will post the new numbers. Hopefully this time it doesnt slip like my current setup! Im going to be spinning the hell out of my little S-Trim but we'll see what she can do and go from there LOL. If anything I might do the 928 Motorsports Impeller upgrade.. Who knows. HAH. Im sure im missing some things in the above catagories but its pretty close off the top of my head.. Also going to Ford GT Cams and upgraded Springs as soon as the money is in my pocket! Then a new tune/new numbers again.. Gotta love the performance bug.
