More HP for a 5.0

PNYPOWR · 02-16-2007, 11:26 AM

Hey guys,

I need some advice. I have a 95 DT witha 5.0. I have replaaced the chip, installed a cat-back Magnaflow exhaust system and added a MAC cold air intake. I'm pushing right at 330hp. Any suggestions on how to up that some without getting really drastic?

How do you figure that you're pushing 330hp? Have you had it dyno'd? I can't see 330hp with those few mods.

Thats one of those rare DT models.

seriously now: those mods probly gave you 10-20 hp at best.
