13' Lingenfelter 700h.p. package, now what?
Currently have a 13' Vert M6 with Lingenfelter 700 package, (installed by LPE when car was new) car currently has 7000 miles and it does have their upgraded intercooler and coolant tank but retained the stock exhaust. Car made 642/635 RWHP.
My question is wheres the best place to spend dollars for gains now? I'm assuming headers, cat delete, X pipe to stock NPP, install a catch can, reinforce brick, trunion upgrade and retune maybe ? After the above should the next step be 9.17" lower (currently 8.6 lower/2.5 upper) bigger injectors and fuel pump ? (came from LPE with 65lb injectors and stock pump) From what I've read this seems like a cheap way to go for them on fuel system only going to 65lb injectors and no pump upgrade or BAP etc. ? ) Would having Kong port the blower be wise (I believe LPE only does snout as part of package) or would a lid spacer and 102mm throttle body be smarter move ? Anyway looking for your advice on best direction, car will be ran on 93 no ethanol around here. Thank you, appreciate the feedback |

I don't know how many times you want to mod...I like to do it once. If I were to do one thing it would be E85. That would "max your dollars for now." Ok city has a bunch of corn. Buy a transfer tank.
If not that, cam, maxing the lower and headers. After that you would want to port and go 102mm. Also, what are your plans with the car. I mean, I find it hard to believe you're not spinning tires already. You will need new wheels if you want to put all that power down. Last edited by JB'sZL1; 04-16-2020 at 05:50 AM. |

Headers, e85, lower pulley 9.5", reinforce brick, trunion upgrade, DSX aux pump, meth kit, 4L80e swap and tune should get you around 750 wheel depending on the cam.

Ive looked at the 9.5 lower with 2.55 upper and the charts say its unsafe, is this not true or is it based on other modifications? Cars just used for spirited street driving, its not a drag car or track car just beat on it on weekends around town. Currently has Continental Extreme contacts 315 on rear it'll spin them but over all hooks pretty well, thank you appreciate your feedback

And the obvious safety measures if you're dismantling anything: trunnions, brick reinforcement, cc...and if you're dismantling a lot, why not port the sc, lid, snout and go 102mm?

I'd do headers, 9.17 lower, injectors, and BAP or aux pump. Add trunnions if you don't have them, add 90mm TB if you don't already have it.
With all of that you should easily be over 700 if it already has heads and cam.

Closest e85 to me is about 60 miles away. I have 7 VP Racing fuel jugs and fill them up with e85 when I am in town. It is easier as I have a truck too. I normally drive premium and save e85 for racing. Nice cam, I have the same. |

Here’s the build sheet,
Hoping this works, I assumed it had a 90mm TB, how do I determine what’s currently on the car? |

Thank you I appreciate the feedback, will look into the TB see what I have and decide where to go from there.
