Below are your mods (that will affect power or "top speed"
Blue for beneficial, red for possibly harmful
Quote:


k&n filter, SVT TB, SVT UIM, SVT LIM, MSDS headers, MSDS Y-pipe, SVT dual exhaust, Custum burned ADC chip, 17" rims



Now, I've stripped away ALL the things that a STOCK SVT has, that you have ADDED.. this is what you have left:

Now, take in to account that your K&N flows "slightly" better but NOT terribly better than a STOCK SVT intake, I'll toss THAT out..

So... you've ended up with:

headers.. a y-pipe... and... a chip. All on heavier rims, and withOUT the cams, pistons or raised compression, with a powerband that falls FLAT on its FACE at 5500-ish (top-speed, anyone??)

So, how is it that your car (with LESS performance pieces than a STOCK SVT, lower compression, and a power curve that falls OFF at the TOP) is going to compete against an SVT in the "top speed" category with the installation of headers and a Y?


Nothing personal, I'd hash this out with anyone that stated something anywhere near as unfounded.
