you'd prolly gain around aprox. 10hp from the HO upper intake alone.
I have stock stang headers, duals and the ho upper with nothing else changed on mine...the throttle response is tremendous!
seems to spool up slightly faster between 3-4K rpm, too.
when you change the cam/injectors/heads is when the ECU needs to be changed...especially with the injectors.
otherwise it will "think" the engine's under a load and pump more fuel, thus, running too rich.
a word of advise, be sure not to swap in the injectors/ecm with the stock cam/heads..mine ran like crap with that combo...especially in the cold.Last edited by Mr. Land Yacht; 03-07-2007, 08:04 PM.sigpic

get the bbk shorty headers......same price and they bolt on much easier......gadget and i have the heddman headers, and they arent as easy to install....the bbk's have thicker flanges and you can get a 1/4 drive socket on most of the bolts unlike the hedmans where we had to use the open end of a wrench
