You got almost 75 horses out of those mods? Thats freakin unbelievable! I have had many vehicles in the past with more mods than you described and only got about 50 horses to the wheel. Did you dyno your Mag, or are you guessing on your horsepower. Actually a stock hemi will only dyno at 250-275 horsepower to the wheel. Just wondering because if you got that much for a little over a grand, I will be doing some ordering next week.

Actually, I hate to burst your bubble, but all of those mods to do not add cumulative horsepower.

Dynos have been done with those same mods and guys are pulling about 290-310 HP to the wheels which means maybe 370 or so at the crank. Every mod does make all the others work better though.

That's what I figured. That seemed a bit MUCH for those few mods. Now maybe if you added a supercharger or nitrous I could see it, but simple bolt ons, that seems a little high. I have done cam work, head work, along with basic bolt ons on v6's and v8s with as little as 35-40 horses to the wheel, but many times I would see over 100-125 lbs ft of torque, and that plus the extra horsepower gains equals a nice upgrade.

Here's my Hearse with 20's, Helo Diamonds. Zoomers next week, CAI after that in August. Nothin for a while, Facia stuff next, Rear wing, Ground Effects, Grille and Trim. Stereo upgrade after that. All of this will take about a year or so. Watcha think...

Yeah, I do tend to spend time with a MF towel wiping it down. In a few years, I will paint it purple or something, oh wait, it will still be a dark color, ughh. Love your rims too and the Infiniti, very nice.

Your rims look superb Hemi_Hearse. Are those all chrome headlights?

Viper, thanks. Yeah, the R/T came with them. I was thinking about blacking out the tail lights and going with black head lights but I like the chromes, I am desparately looking for some Altezza or European tails but no one makes em yet.
