Performance Gains After Mods??
Performance Gains After Mods??
This questions is probably for Ken Payne, the Webmaster, but feel free to comment.
After looking at the performance gains of the Superchip, I do have a question on the effects of installing the chip after I do my modification. What sort of gains can I expect after I have the chip programmed for (Doug Thorley's headers, K&N FIPK, and Magna Flow exhaust)?
For a stock 460 motor, the gain was about a 10% (25HP and 45 Torque). After the installation of my mods, would I see a 10% increase in HP/TQ based on the higher HP and Torque now my motor makes? Or, would I still see just 25HP/45 torque gain?
Thanks,

There's a law dimishing returns. Adding two items that give a 10% increase each will result in less than 20% when combined. You'll see more than the standard amount of increase from the chip as you increase the base line horse power but don't count on a consistant gain.
