How is the CSVT running? And how did you come to the conclusion that you have 245hp? Did you dyno it?

It's running ok. I need to tune it, it needs brakes, needs new interior, needs new paint and I have to get the oil system sorted out.
But yeah, it was dynoed at 202 fwhp and 180 ft/lbs of torque. Both at the front wheels. Through talking to Demon (thanks!) we determined that that is roughly 245 hp and 200 ft/lbs at the crank.
My goal is 220 fwhp and 200 lb/ft without changing heads and cams. If I do decide to do cams and another head I'll probably shoot for 240-250 and 225 at the front wheels.

You think tuning it can add 20hp? I'm just asking because I have no clue.

What kind of heads and cams would you get? I didn't think there were aftermaket pieces for them.

Did you install headers with the swap?

I think I can add 20 if I do throttle body and big bore butterflies and port the UIM again.

I have the MSDS headers on it now. Was thinking about buying a set of Kingers heads and getting either these new Cat Cams or another company I know of that does cams.
