Awesome numbers, especially with that small of a cam. What do you need to put this on a C5? I assume:

The heads themselves, with stock valves
valve springs (which ones?)

WTT: My twin-tip GHL Magnums, for your stock Z06 TI exhaust

It's the system with two big tips with rolled edges, and it's been on my car for a couple hundred miles, since I got my 402. I paid $695+tax for it about 3 months ago, but had to wait over a month...

Sea-level is about 14.7psi, knock 20% off that, and I'm at 12psi ambient air pressure. If the supercharger/turbo makes more than 3psi, I'll be doing better than sea-level, and anything above that...

Best FI for high-altitude?

I just moved to Colorado, and my C5 (with a brand new 402 that I never got a chance to drive at sea-level) doesn't feel that peppy. I just checked an online calculator, and was surprised to see...

3" Exhaust options?

My stock cats, H-pipe and mufflers are costing me 60hp on my new 402, compared to open headers. It seems clear the cats are clogged. I want a X-Pipe that works with my stainless works headers, and...

Right now, I'm leaning towards the Random Tech X-pipe and cats. It's fewer pieces than the one from stainless works, so they'll be less joints and clamps to mess with. Plus, it says right on it,...
