CAMARO6 - View Single Post - LT1 620-630whp street build

Hey all,

I'm looking to do a Pro charger P1X based street build. It will be a daily driven car in somewhat mild NC weather (still in the high 50s to occasional low 70s). No DRs and I'll be on street tires (PS4S) throughout the year. As mentioned in the title, I want to limit power to low 600s range and definitely keep it under 650whp (I know i'm the oddball here not chasing after big numbers

). At this range, hopefully less likely to have any/major problems with the SBE under normal driving conditions. I am currently considering two options.

Option 1, P1X with 50/50 meth kit which is more budget friendly and simple setup (plan to spray conservatively) plus a good dyno tune.
Option 2, P1X with blower cam kit plus a good dyno tune (not sure on specs/brand yet but not interested in biggest/most aggressive cam set-up. Drivability is more important).

The car is completely stock at the moment minus cosmetics.

I'm pretty sure I can fairly easily reach the target with the meth kit. Will I be able to achieve similar results with the latter without too much efforts e.g. fuel upgrades and etc? If there're better/safer builds or parts I should consider in conjunction with the above, please let me know.

Not looking to chase that extra 1/10th, nor am I a dyno queen. And no plan to go BIG down the road. I just want a fun and reliable long-term daily driver. Some of you may think i'm wasting potential and can scold me all you want, but I think low 600s is plenty fun on the street.

Odd question. Do shops typically charge more for install during warmer seasons, or does pricing more or less stay consistent throughout the year?

And if you're a vendor reading this post, can you PM a quote for P1X tuner kit with stage II I/C, helical gearset, race bypass valve, and black satin finish for both bracket and head unit?

Thanks in advance and happy new years everyone!!
