I know it's out there in tons of build threads, I just wonder if this is about where most sit with similar mods (intake, headers, tune).

I can comment on Evolve's tune and how good it is. Imran and his team were able to squeeze out just under 300 at the wheels for me (299.5) with CSL headers and SS x-pipe and powerloops. Imran says it should be a bit higher since the tires I had on cause a bit of unreliable readings (Direzza Z II's), he said it's probably around 5-10% more.
You can really feel the difference mainly from 3.5-4K and up as it just pulls all the way through. |
I couldn't agree more; the Evolve tune really tied the headers and intake together and got the most out of them. The HP line is insanely linear, maxes out nice and early at 7K, and the TQ was dramatically improved, as well.
On top of the pure power improvements from the tune, I also love the improved throttle response. With sport mode off it is much more responsive, and with sport mode on, it is smoother and far easier to use.
Definitely worth every penny.
Now I just have to see if I can squeeze out a little more power by changing to section 1 with high flow cats and perhaps an underdrive pulley set.
