How to add 140 rwhp to your Camaro SS without boost!

Literally adding a full civic to your Camaro. Classic

How much this gonna run you

[@MasterCarguy44-pk2dq]

Not bad. I got a buddy with his 2019 5.0 with 395 whp stock. Just ported fact mani, full headers-exhaust, TB and filter drop in and got it to 475 rwhp. On E it got to 530 rwhp. I still dont believe it but hey, 585 crank hp,v0-60: 3.2 sec and 10.8@132 says it all. Surprised the LT1 needs a 12k HC, pack to get similar power as the stang did for under 5300. Also didnt know cam swap on 2016+ LT1 was such a huge PITA compared to the LS3/LS6/LS2/LS1. Looks like a power adder is better for the LT1 200 whp for 7500.

[@MasterCarguy44-pk2dq]

Problrm is you could leave most of it stock and just slap a prochsrger on it, 160 rwhp for 7k. I bet this set up in the video is over 7k, probably closer to 13k from their website. Over prices mods.

[@RealTCR]

@@MasterCarguy44-pk2dqnearly 600 crank. It can barely crack into the tens? A lt1 can do that easily

[@vulcantuminello1127]

​@MasterCarguy44-pk2dq And you add 60-70 lbs over the front wheels, been there done that (2002 Pontiac TA with Vortech SC) it made great dyno numbers but the performance wasn't there at the track vs heads and cam making 50 less whp. Adding 60-70 lbs impacts the weight distribution, reducing weight transfer and makes it plow more I'm turns as a track car. I didn't even touch on potential heat soak. NA is the way to go with LSX. Forced Induction is great if you have less displacement to begin with, like a 4 or 6 cylinder. The only caveat here is those rear mounted twin turbo kits that put the weight over the rear wheels and of course C8 kits that similarly put the additional weight over the rear wheels.

[@duygukayhanisaskank4915]

FOR WHAT IT IS WORTH: This is a very impressive increase of RWHP & torque. Congrats!!!! If you haven't done-so already...??...I strongly suggest the following beneficial additions: Up-grade the coils, wires & plugs to boost the rear-wheel torque & a measurable horsepower gain. Factory plugs, coils & wires are the weakness of your engine heads upgrade. These OEM items can't exploit the benefits of those aftermarket, efficient, high-flow heads. As you likely know, an upgrade of the fuel injectors can also boost numbers. But save them for last. Additionally, a Flowmaster X-Scavenger installed near the collectors of the headers will balance the exhaust flow & efficiently enhance scavenging. There-by, greatly increasing engine torque profile. Obviously, even more-so if you can ditch or by-pass the catalytic converters. No-doubt, your professional engine guys know these "tuner points" as well. Respectfully, Ben
