This is wrong, Aaron Cake ran 12psi on an NA with the stock ECU, 550cc fuel injectors, and an SAFC-II.

Hey don't worry guys, I'm running to the dyno as soon as I get my parts. So, just think how long it will take to get MSD wires, a boost gague/pod, and also my injector connector.

Can you get 170 hp with a few mods such as porting and better exhaust and carburation? I am installing a SC on a street ported N/A 13b with a 650 Holley. I was hoping to get about enough increase to get to 225 hp (50% increase). It might be less than a Turbo but I am looking for power at lower rpms.
