Default Ute getting tuned ..

This coming saturday i'm getting the ute tuned using the J3 chip, what kinda numbers do you think i'll end up with? It has hurricane extractors, 100 cpsi cats, dual 2.25 exhaust, x-pipe into glass pack mufflers dumped at the diff, G&D cai, 70mm T/ford TB .. so basically just bolt on stuff, not sure what else i could do without touching the engine and i'll put my msd leads & coil packs on before the tune. 175 - 180rwkw?

Anyone remember what was in Herrods 250kw upgrade? I'm pretty sure it was all bolt on stuff and nothing touched on the engine except rockers i think?

Crow 621371 cam
YT 1.72 rockers
Difillippo system
SS inductions intake
Intake Pipe
Unichip

That was about it, they varied sometimes but that was the majority of it. I have a scanned copy of a receipt for one here somewhere.

This is a pic of my sisters old series 2 xr8 ute 185kw which had the 250kw upgrade. It had the rockers, exhaust & chip but pretty sure no cam or intake?
The red rocker covers with the Herrod plate you can just see on it.

Yeah as above they did chop and change a bit but I'm almost certain that the cam was part of the 250kw pack. I'll check tonight.

The jump between 200 - 250 killawhasps sounds hard with only bolt ons and no cam.

Hmm could've sworn no cam was done but i could be wrong. I'll see if she can find the invoices to confirm.
Thanks for that.

Unless one of those bolt ons is a blower I would dare say it's borderline impossible.

Found the invoice. It had a cam put in p/n - 1371, no mention of roller rockers or intake, had head gear to suit cam plus exhaust and uni chip etc ... other parts were just gaskets, plugs etc.
