You got intake mods, pulley, tune and you are looking over 350whp easy. Anyone can do that in a weekend.

Whats that leave us? Id rather bolt on a new SC than open up the block and start porting heads or go with $2000+ cams etc.

As you mentioned, your looking at about 400whp limit tweeked and i agree. So Nitrous or bigger SC. A SC would be nice
And you still got no ECU that can control all those goodies...

If and when you get the ECU issue solved ($$), and then pay for all those "goodies" - - you've got like $15K- $20K; perhaps even more invested and all you will do is spin your tires and-or break an axle..

I'll be very happy with 400RWHP (40 more to go) and the lower price tag.

If I was serious about straight line drag racing (600+ RWHP) - I would invest my $$ in another platform....and keep my SRT6 for the road course.....
