I don't think so either. When I worked at Andial, our 3.4L Motronic twin-plugs made in the 260 range with 964 cams, extrude honed plenums, reworked eprom, stock heat exchangers/cat and a Tezet "sport" muffler. I think I am being conservative and better to be conservative and be pleasantly surprised than to set yourself up for a fall.
Will initially run stock heat exchangers with the pre-muffler and once the car gets through smog, will run European Racing Headers by George. There I should be in the 285 bhp range.
Steve, the carbs also have the advantage of looking better under the decklid and sounding much better. It all depends on what your plans with the car are. Good luck with your decision.
