~ I WANT 400hp

[Nocturnal'14]

I am just starting the debate on my perf mods....exterior & Susp are done now.
I want to see what you would recommend for me to get to 400hp & what it would take for me to get to 422hp!
I don't want to give up ANY hp/tq down low just to gain it at peak.

CURRENT: 369hp/350tq
MODS: GT500 AB's, JBA After Cat H-Pipe, No resonators, ROUSH CAI.

1. So what will it take to get to 400rwhp!?

2. So what will it take to get to 425rwhp!?

NO BOOST!!! N/A For this car...no SC/Turbo or Spray.

Tune and off road x/h pipe.

I thought of doing the Cat delete pipes...I already have an after cat H-Pipe.
How much does the Cat delete pipes gain you!?

I also thought about either
A: getting a Pro-Cal and being done with it ($298)
or
B: ditching the ROUSH CAI and getting an SCT Tune & Intake. ($649 - this would allow me to delete the cats also)

This but weld your resonators back in

i made 400whp on just a tune

 

[faztcobra]

I made 397 rwhp with just a tune and offroad H on a 90+ degree day.

tune, cat delete, maybe an actual intake, but the cats are where most of the power is in the exhaust that alone is about 15hp

I made 393RWHP with just the Ford racing Procal tune, Id say a cutom tune should get you 400 with the mods you have now.

 

[alex12gt]

that after cat h prolly doesnt add any power other then changing the tone of the exhaust

Do you have a dyno graph before/after you could pm to me? Thx

Boy don't I know that!! Love the way my car sounds....that's why I'm hesitant to do the cat-deletes now.

Delete post

 

[alex12gt]

then i would say tune the car and go from there

 

[me32]

Add a tune an your there.

Like others have posted do a tune and you're going to be in the 400+- rwhp range. Also don't worry about buying another intake since you have the roush one, I have it and it works fine with a tune.

What tune are you running!? Is your lethal X-pipe an after cat pipe or does it delete the cats!?

Where did you find the procal that cheap?
