Eh, I like NA builds on these. I can easily get 180whp on OEM internals, even on GSR cams. 190whp (with a much fatter midrange) is easy with bigger cams.

Race car is putting down 172/131 on all OEM internals, OEM header, OEM intake (well the filter is a K&N), OEM GSR ECU, OEM cams, OEM gears so no tuning there either. Just bored a little, shaved a little, balanced. Takes 4inlbs of force to rotate the bottom end of that motor.
