145whp? i think thats generous :\ Im just quoting what members at mr2oc were saying and 145-150whp was the most they were saying they've seen from those upgrades trust me, you'll be very lucky to get 145whp. the guy who made 145whp had ported head, shaved deck, blah blah...its all a waste of money. you may not know till you try...but ive been there, done that. lol mild cams in an auto car is really pointless. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

I hate when you guys are right, lol I wanted to make my car faster on this auto tranny but you guys are right I did research all night last night and added up the cost and for more if not double the power and I can have that for a little more money. I'm just gonna doing headers and exhaust, make it look nice then get myself either an all trac or a 6th gen with a 3s swap its just smarter money wise. My over all goal for this project was to keep it like it is now but with more power and the cost vs outcome isn't worth it. I may look into getting a beams w/ auto tranny swap but the only thing with that is what if it goes out you can't find parts for them at all. I'm listening to you guys though and make the smarter decision and just leave it the way it is for now and starting looking else where for more power.

The only prob with a header and exhaust is you'll end up losing low-end power. The upside though is that'll you gain top end power (not really a whole lot in the gain (but noticeable) but again, you will lose low end and that sucks.
