OK gus, I'm ready for some more HP, any tips??

I have the FTVB, oil seperator, BBP,JLP Ram air CAI, #4 pulley and a Predator tuned by Sal at PSP. On the dyno in 85 degree weather I put down SAE 382HP and 482.6 TQ. I'm thinking the next step is electric fan kit and ported eaton done by Apton?? I wanting to get it NEAR the limit of what the bottom end can handle. Not over the limit to where I blow the bottom end out of it. Whatcha think??

I have the exact same mods as you plus the Apten and E-fan. Without the E-fan I made 400hp SAE in 90 degree temps. 'Course since that dyno run I also had JLP dyno tune my truck so I'm probably at about 405-410hp and 490-500ftlb. I don't have the exact numbers because it was on a mustang dyno compared to my dynojet numbers. I would recommend both and you should be just fine as far as your block is concerned. I'm even wanting to get a 75-100 shot on top of that for those track days

i just installed the zex wet kit.... i'd be cheaper and quicker to get a small shot of nitrous than doing what you stated. and nitrous has been proven over and over, unlike some of the port jobs here lately.

Go for the APTEN port job. You will love it. My 02L has #4pulley, superchip, cold air, throttle body, and Apten Port. It put down 420hp/519tq. You will love the power gain and extra whine it creates!
