1.8 rockers

[9701gpgtp]

How much gain have people noticed with the 1.8 rockers? My last Gp was cammed. But don't have the motivation nor the time to do a cam this time around. It will be paired with a ported blower and LIM, N*/lq4 setup, CAI, headers, 3.3 pulley and probably a basic ZZP 1.0 tune. Just wondering how suprised I'll will be with the difference from stock to the new setup?

you wont likely be able to run the 3.3. you dont need a n* either, your no where near maxing out the stock maf.
a 3.4 with rockers is a nice little jump in HP. so says the butt dyno.

i dont see heders on yor list there. you need them.

The n* helps past 4800 rpm. After the n* install on my last build it would pull hard all the way to 6200rpm. Where stock tb would fall off at around 4800-5k rpms. Last build was vs cam and a 3.3 pulley

But you arent camming this motor, so you won't have any power past 5500 rpm. Changing the throttle body and trying to run a bigger maf will do you no good then.

All the N* does is change pedal feel. If can't outflow the stock MAF, you can't outflow the throttle body because you arent pushing enough air.

Just for reference, the 2004+ guys can't change the size of the throttle body because it's drive by wire and lots of guys make alot of power with it.

Headers, rocker, pulley drop and tune should be all you need. I highly suggest something other than a ZZP tune. Invest in a wideband aswell.
