What would get me to 400hp?

i havent had it dyno'd yet... plan to next week.... but i think everyone agreed yesterday im in the 380-385hp range.... what would it take to add another 20hp??

and keep in mind its a daily driver... so i dont really want the NOS and other extreme measures...

I think you could reach 400hp with just a 4# pulley and maybe a e-fan. Along with your other mods. Jim

I think with a 4#, efan, some type of Hiflow air filter,Single Blade TB, and a Dyno tunned chip you probably be right at 400. I'm not even close to an expert but from my expiriences thats what I think. Of course colder plugs

welll

assumming 400hp at the rear wheels right!

if it is at the crank, advance the timing some and you'll be at 400hp
