well my top 3 picks are
1. proefi
2. aem v2
3. haltech platinum sport 2000
but i want to proefi because it works great with e85 it can adjust its self according to the amount of ethanol. so you only need one tune. i made 780rwhp at 22psi with a stock block 272 cams and valve train upgrade with a 80mm turbo. i cant wait to see it now twin 54mm turbos 9.5:1 compression 274 cams with more lift then the hks 272 and a fully built head and block plus 600lbs less

update here is a pic of the twin turbo setup with custom 2.5 inch down pipes that i made. i also had to add waste gate ports because the manifolds were for internal waste gate setup. i made the downpipes so i can disconet the v band and take off the turbo with downpipes annd manifold all together. it will make it much easier to install and uninstall.

Looks amazing, man. My only gripe is that 90-degree intercooler piping elbow you got there. That's a pretty air-restrictive bend to have in the IC piping...

the car will still make my goal of 700 to 800rwhp with that its really not a big deal. people need to understand that certain things become restrictive at certain boost or power levels. for example a 2jzgte intake manifold starts to become restrictive at 800 850rwhp. same thing with cams turbine housing and so on thrust me when i say this is still going to be good for 800 plus horsepower before it even comes close to playing a factor or a restriction. i build my cars according to the power levels that i want. its like would you buy a weldon 2345a fuel pump thats good for 2400 hp on a 500 gas powered car. that would just be stupid. a pump that is good for 700 hp would be ideal. same thing here im am not looking for 1000rwhp+. its like taking a 13b and getting a full blown race port on stock twins. you dont need a full bolwn race port because it makes no sense. same here i dont need to replace because its not going to hurt my number or become a restriction till way after my power goal. so why do it?

See post 22.


FYI, so you don't need to break out the calculator. My calculations were done to 90 lbs/min.

you are gonna love the GSC S2 cams, but i would highly recommend not running those Venem cam gears, they only have 4 bolt tightening pattern, i have heard of these along with AEM and HKS cam gears slip timing. i would look into Titan Motorsports, Fidanza, Unorthodox Racing, Greddy or Nitto. all of these companies make a 5 bolt tightening pattern which will not slip timing

thanks, but i already made 780rwhp on the cam gears with a th400. thats over 900rwhp on a 6 speed. i never had a problem with them but i did with the aem ones like 10 years ago. anyway here are some new updates

I finally got my blow off valves.

It looks great, but that super huge 90-degree bend coming off the throttle body still really bothers me, man..

Did you not have any other option for routing the IC piping?
