Default Vortech in her but a bit more POWER wanted...

Just installed A Vortech SC and LOVE it but still want more outta her... "SPOON" header and flywheel on order and have an HKS exhaust already. Do you think I should mess with the gears...maybe 5.1? Thanks, CFL

You could go to a different pulley and push more PSI.

Well gears won't give you any more power. Do you mean to say you wanna go faster? Because if it's power you're looking for why not try to crank up the boost. What air/fuel mods do you have? I'd go with a nice standalone, a bigger pulley and spend a few hours on the dyno you'll defiantly increase your numbers.

Well, there's always bigger injectors but you'll probably want to invest in an AEM if you go that route. If you want some limited tuning for a/f without an injector change you could go with a VAFC or an eManage.

You can get a new header and exhaust to gain a bit (debatable). You could stroke it to 2.2. Put new cams in, valve springs, flywheel, gears, reinforced diff housing, etc.

It all depends on your wallet.

I think you may want to consider working on the suspension/tires and wheels though. You've got the power with just the FI, now improve your handling. You may also want to get different brakes.
