Default Update on my car

Well, I just got my car back from my tuner. My current numbers were 343rwhp and 365tq. I installed a Paxton front mount, vortech mini race, and put on a 3.12 pulley. I was expecting a little higher numbers, but i'm still happy. I put out exactly 370rwhp, 380tq. I'm seeing about 11psi. The mean reason i went with such a small pulley is because next, i plan to do some crower stage 2 blower cams, which will drop my boost even more, and will save me the headache of having to change pulley sizes yet again. All in all, the car feels soooo much stronger down low now and definately worth the upgrade. Like I said, i plan to do cams next, which my tuner said is the biggest restriction on my car now and should yield me about 30rwhp. This will be the last mod i do for power, and finally a stall converter and my performance mods will be complete.....for now

thats a decent increase for a intercooler addition. you went from 9 psi to 11psi and picked up 30 hp. those cams will really wake those heads up. do you have auto mods yet? then next thing to really look into will be your tranny. i have 400 hp and 400 tq after a few months my tranny got lazy. when you do the converter add a valve body or do a J-mod at least to help your stocker keep up with that power.

Thanks for the compliment. The only mods done to my tranny are a Trans go shift kit and a B&M tranny cooler. Other than that its a stock AODE. I realize that it will eventually go, but hopefully no time soon. I really dont beat on the car all that much.
