It's a pretty big job to replace the valve springs as you need to pull the front cover, then valve covers, and the cams will need to come out too. When I did my valve springs I put in ARP head studs as they are easy to install at that time. Besides my heads started to life with 17psi of...

You are absolutely correct. I really didn't plan to be here now but I tend to overbuild things. What kind of custom headers do you recommend? I'd like to go with a better set of headers that are able to max out the turbos that I currently have. I don't intend to ever go past 1500 crank hp...

Looks like a solid run at 16psi. Just an FYI but I smoked my stock block at 18.5psi as I melted one piston and cracked another one. LOL

I have a sleeved and forged short block so yeah I'd like to see at least 1200whp with my Comp 6062's.

They do look to be made decent at least. It should flow better than the stock manifolds. If you want to make power you better have at a minimum dual 3" or dump them. Don't waste your time with a stock cat back if you want to power up! :) For me I'm looking to max out the BW kit with stock...

I wonder how that would work as an upgrade for those with stock modified manifolds such as the BW kit. I tried to buy their headers but they are unresponsive to any communication. It sure looks like my turbos would bolt right up.

What size turbine size did you have? I have the 6062's with the .82 turbines.

You lucky sob!! Just curious but what kind of issues have you had with their turbos? I don’t have a lot of miles on mine but they spool fast and I can hear them spin for maybe a minute after I turn the car off.

I do know that Whipple does sell an O ring kit for the entire blower to intake but you'd have to call them for info.

Yup that is an easy fix! BTW Magnetic PP's are the fastest!! :)

They wouldn't tell me what kind of grease it is when I spoke with Comp. My only option was to buy that expensive grease but it should last forever. Pro tip: Buy from jegs to save on shipping.

Just a heads up but Discount Tire has $100 off of a $400 purchase on the Bay right now.

Have you tried using the Cometic head gaskets? I’ve used them in my latest engine build and they look to be made very well.

I ordered mine in black already.

On my 2016 I started out with a Whipple and worked up to 17psi of boost. I loved the instant power and smooth drivability. Then I went to twin turbos and truly enjoy the much improved midrange and top end power while it drives like stock when off boost. I do miss the instant hit of the...

Ooh that would be very educational and informative. Please find the time to do that.

Well there was that nearly 1psi gain in boost. Rule of thumb is 1lb of boost=300whp. Yup sounds about right!!

I talked with Lund about my power goals and they said that I could do cams but would recommend porting at the same time. They also said that at my power goals of 1100whp that they weren't necessary. Figure this would also be a 4-5K hit on top of my engine build. I figure if I wanted to upgrade...

Yessir I can be stubborn as well and like to push the limits. It was an offer for an even trade for the Whipple for the brand new BW kit. I couldn’t pass it up. At close to 1000whp she pulled like mad. It blew off the drag radials even at 80 when the boost hit. Your beast is going to be...

Thanks so much for the clear cut and straight forward video showing the dramatic variation. Nice to see some truth out there.
