after my tune... 115WHP

It really was about 5-7HP with i/h/e/flywheel/clutch/VAFC2 tuned...

If I break 130WHP im gold!
and all that was about $2k-2500 for what 5-7hp. i know because i have the same mods minus the vafc2. i dont see a need to put one in it doesnt seem like its even worth what you would feel on the butt dyno. i mean 5hp isnt shyt. i spent $3k in a week on the vic doing the header, cat pipe, exhaust, clutch , flywheel and springs/shocks and in reality i now knowi could have lived with out. i mena its fun to drive but it still isnt worth the $3k i spent to get beat by minivans.. ill stick to cosmetic mods on theis car from this point forward. the teg will be the hp monster.

sorry man i dont mean to play father if that is what it sounds like. but if i were to do a stg 2 cam swap it would have to have EMS to get the tune needed and raise the rev limiter so i could actually get the hp that the cam offers. otherwise for the minimal hp you gain its a lot of work and money
