Nice numbers, do you know what they were without the hot rods?

No, I'm not sure since I installed everything at once.

Congrats on the setup man! Sounds great.

One thing I noticed with my Corsa set up is that the car always sounds way louder outside than inside the car. It's almost disproportional in a way, it's weird (especially since the sound deadening in the Mustang isn't awesome).

It's interesting that you're making 53hp and 10tq over my car (difference: you have a TB, Intake Manifold, and a larger 110mm intake--mine is only 95mm; I also run a catless H but that shouldn't make much difference).

I was surprised when I heard the numbers. I was not expecting any ridiculous ones because of the hot rod cams and I really got them because they sounded good and loud. Truthfully I was only expecting 330whp. For 3 items, that sure does pose a pretty large difference. I'll post the dyno sheet when I get it scanned.

Please do! I'm interested to see the difference. Did you ever get around to the blower?

I was going to do a blower, but decided to enjoy N/A for a bit longer... I really wanted the HR cams to begin with. I'm going to do a pretty big change next year so I'm already preparing for that.

I'm going to go with the RTR's I know that everyone and their mom has them, but they look nice, I can rotate them, and the offset is aggressive enough that it will make me happy in the end.

That's it. I'm buying cams. And an intake manifold. And a cold air intake. I hate, I love you. It's so good it's bad. I have mixed emotions right now.

Seriously it sounds good. I'm just not sure between those or the comp thumper cams

If you want power, do the comp cams. The hot rods sounds awesome but they don't make much power. (I made like 6whp)

Haha, I appreciate the compliment. I can't express how much I am in love with it. The comp cams were also a choice, but I got the HR's new for only $500 and that sealed the deal.

If A tuner knows what they are doing, hot rods make as much or more power than any Other NSR cam.

Can you explain this? I have a email tune from AM and took it to the dyno. The tuner said I was making all the power I could and I was doing it safely with the AM email tune.

I put down 300whp/308tq with a C&L intake, hot rods, O/R H pipe, stock headers, mufflers, and a 93 octane tune.

Appreciate the comments guys. Surprisingly inside the car is very quiet like almost stock sound while idling... but my friends said they can hear it idling at a stop light like 1/2 a mile away, haha.

thats the corsas for ya. I had a 07 gt with bbk longtubes, off road x, corsa sports, and mutha thumprs and it was really quiet inside, idling and moving. but it was the loudest exhaust setup i ever had besides when the cutouts were open
