Can't wait to get my parts on the car now! I am going to be running about the same setup except for the 550's, I got 450's from Jon.

I'm shooting for the 240-250 whp range. Hope I hit it!

Those are weak #'s for that KA24DET. Its only 50 hp more than stock. My friend is putting down 250 on 8 psi on a custom kit with a JWT ECU.

the ka24det that did 187rwhp has the stock ecu and mafs and stock exhaust so that could be the reason why it didnt go up so high

holy crap, my car is going to have almost the same setup. All the major parts anyway. I wasn't expecting it to be able to make that much power with that setup! I think I'll be hitting 250whp easy!

BLOW through. Now I get it. Thats bologna. The Z MAFS poses practically no restriction to the air flow, so I don't see how it's placement would effect the horsepower.

I love it when a plan comes together! And I also would love to see a few more CA18 owners take their cars to a dynomometer to measure their car A/F ratio as well as static hp/tq. Excellent Job with the car and beautiful dyno run.
