What I already have.
Pray remote tuned.
Kooks long tube headers 1 7/8 in. x 3 in
Pray ported ZR1 throttle body (95mm)
Pray ported intake manifold (stock)
Rotofab CAI
DSX Flex Fuel E-85 kit
Cats Removed

My concerns are getting the most out of the car while not beating it to death. I have been researching the best ways to prolong the life of the motor while having a fun cam. I don't race and mostly highway drive. I would say a good 80 percent of my time is highways, but I do enjoy being able to take it around the city.

The shop here recommends I put in TSP stage 2 cam kit, 227/242 .646"/.631" 112 LSA, 109.5 ICL w/ +32% and TSP trunnion upgrade kit.

And they recommended having TSP port the heads as well, but after reading about the issues with porting the stock heads and knowing Pray is probably months away from even answering emails I think I've settled on the PRC heads from TSP. I would love some MAST heads but they are beyond my budget.


I'm concerned about the TSP CAM first and foremost. Unless there is a revision to the CAM I read the lobe is pretty aggressive and read bad things about float and bounce. I do like the numbers I see from their dynos but if I can do it smarter I'm all in. I was wondering if maybe the BTR Gen V 225 would be a smarter move. I do love a choppy sounding lobe.

Here's the rest of my plans but only talked to the shop yesterday and hes out today so I'm looking for feedback before I go.

PRC heads with the standard fittings"2.165" Stainless Hollow stem Intake Valve / 1.600" Stainless Exhaust Valve
TSP .660 Spring Kit w/ PAC Valve Springs & Titanium Retainers
CHE Bronze Guides"
2110r Johnson lifters (worth it from what I've read?)
TSP Trunnion kit (havent seen any reason to go above these)
Katech C5R timing chain
Replace current chain tensioner -Not sure if I should do the $250 LMR chain guide but at least getting a new stock tensioner.
Katech oil pump A7503 that has higher oil pressure but requires a tune.

Any advice? Anything thing I missed?
What does the car ET and MPH now?
