If you look at his list of mods, he really doesn't have that much done performance -wise considering the NPI engines are gutless anyways. All he really did was put the engine in there that should have been in the first place and some bolt-ons. And a 2800 stall? Not even worth the money. That's a lame stall rating. And from what I see, his exhaust is pretty stock which doesn't compliment the MAF the intake, or the cams nearly as much as it would with a full exhaust setup. Chopping the mufflers off pretty much gains nothing but noise. And I'll bet he gained next to nothing with the PI cams since his exhaust is still stock.

I could see a full exhaust setup with headers and a more aggressive stall making a big difference for him though.
