Man you sure are pesamistic!!!
I've said it in another forum before, but I'll say it again. I am really sick of people having a hack at other people without any facts!!! You can't doubt what people say just because you don't think it adds up. People are way to fast to jump in and bag a person or company just because they have been ill informed or mislead in some sort of way.
The gains Storm can expect are minimal at best. The more mods you do to an engine will relaise smaller ans smaller gains as a percentage when something like the exhaust hasn't been upgraded. One of the main mods that need to be done to a blown engine is big exhaust! With out going over the top bigger is always better! So when the standard exhaust is retained the this is a MAJOR restriction. The overlap on that cam is extremely mild!!! Infact minorly different from the standard cam. The lift is also very minor. Given the result with the standard exhaust, with a well designed and free flowing exhaust we should see over 200rwkw.
One other thing, if you are going to consider the cost involved... The A2A setup is double the YT W2A setup Storm has. So given that fact alone and the relatively similar results. I can see which I would be leaning towards!!!
But lets keep the comparisons out of hear! This was (still is) a thread by Storm about his car!!!
If you have doubts about his claims keep it to PMs. Or gather factual information before the gums start flapping!

@VN Calais 5.0: Just don the flame suit :flame: I'd be, as many others would, be very interested in your project. That Torana is a gun! :w00t:
@sixshooter: I'm not discourged at all There is always going to be people that feel the need to knock other peoples efforts. At the same time there are people that like to see what others have achieved, thus helping them to shape ideas that can work for them.
@Blue-Chip: Hmmm, sounds like you have something personal going against Scotty. I put these threads up to show geniunely interested people how I am going with my endevours. It's part of the fun discussing outcomes and such as it can lead to more exciting things in the future. I give Chip Control a good rap because they have always looked after my interests and Scotty is just such an easy person do to business with. I'm sure that people on these forums want to know who the good guys in this industry are so they don't get burnt. I've got no problems in sharing my fantastic experiences with others so they can get the same benefit as I have got.
@Tark: Thanks mate. You've always been a well of useful information for me and many others. Keep up the good work! :bow:
@bandsaw: I've asked Scotty for a full chart and the torque figures. When I get them I'll post them here.
@VYman: I'm waiting patiently to see how your beast performs once you get some spare time to fit your new goodies :yeah:
Update
The blower and intake manifold are being ported as I speak so it will be interesting to see what gains will be made, especially with the current exhaust situation. Yeah I know, get the exhaust done I hear you say That will be coming hopefully sooner rather than later.
Ciao ...
