Nice job on the hood and cold air looks clean.
OP..motors as we know are pumps
Air in, air out
Believer in proper porting cam timing etc.
Bolt ons and playing with tuning is a good place to start though

Only way to higher boost my friend! i gained 0,5 bar in boost after i cut that piece of **** stock intercooler out.
I used 2intercoolers that is rated 400hp each and cut them open at one side and handmade the plenums.

dont wowrry about rwhp most # out there are bs. ITs about track times and feel that matters. Want the truth pm me.
Bolt ons are bolt ons...the real meat comes from within.
The MB are my (now ex), hp unknown. Personal vechicles never measuerd either but will eclips a 120mph quarter with ease.
