Made my appointment today after a lot of deliberation decided to keep the car NA. I won't be proceeding with my original plans for a blower. Going on April 16th to ECS car goes in for:

- ECS Devil Cam Package
- 25% Underdrive Pulley
- Fast 102mm Intake(budget depending)

Hoping for 480whp

Hey do you know the specs on that cam? I want to keep mine NA as well, but I'm torn between setups. I live in Queens so ECS was one of the shops I considered (as well as Tune Time, Cartek, Vette Doctors, etc.). I was originally going to go with the G6X3, but if this is a meaner setup I'll reconsider.

Not sure if it is a meaner setup than the G6X3, that is a pretty big cam but so is the devil cam. ECS doesn't give out the specs of the cam only thing I know is it will be on a 112LSA. I like the idle of the cam the most out of the ones I've heard and the guys at ECS are top notch.

I've seen this cam + fast intake make north of 500whp, heads/cam somewhere around ~525whp.

Thanks! Yeah 480whp would be nice, not like I can't get into trouble with the 420 i'm already putting down. If I can throw the fast on I'll probably make close to 500whp or more, then I'll go back for heads and AAM 3.91 gears the next go around.

Your gonna love the maggie, probably make great power! What are you hoping for in power? I was originally gonna do a blower cam then a Ysi blower and go for north of 800whp but adding it all up having to beef up the rear end, driveshaft, axels for reliability just wasn't the road I was willing to travel.

Ride was a bit rough on the Pedders Coils. Picked up a set of Pedders XA Coilovers. Should be here end of the week. Selling my Springs if anyone is interested. PM Me.

Coilovers arrived today they are in fantastic shape, looks like the box took most of the abuse, thanks ups . Coilovers were packed up beautifully! Thanks 02blueSS!

Update for my install at ECS, in order to plant the power i'll be making going going to put in poly control arm bushing set(rear), poly trailing arms bushings, and poly toe rod arm bushings. Maybe some adjustable toe rods if I decide to drop 2"+ I want that slammed look with the 22's

I think we are spread out evenly throughout the state so I don't think it will be a problem trying to take home those trophies at the shows! Which I plan to do more of this year after the bumper and coilovers I should be show ready!

Thanks appreciate it man, she is a work in progress but getting there, Probably never be finished haha . Definitely let me know I want to see your new rims and how everything comes out!
