Best Way to make 30 whp

I have a 03' Evo with a TBE, Base Flash, and MBC set at 22 psi. What would you do in my position to gain 30 whp for the best price.

Cams and a reflash is a quick way for 30whp

BAH....280's are great, especially with a good tune. I just dyno'd at 326hp and 325trq and that is really my only power mod....and yes that is to the wheels, on a mustang dyno...

I agree with you about the cams 100%...but i just have a question about your numbers, if cams is your only power mod then what were your base numbers on that mustang dyno .... the only reason im asking is b/c on about 2 or 3 MD's i have seen base evo's would put down about 206-209whp.

He is tuned by jestr in orlando, one of the best and he runs strong, just stalls sometimes at traffic lights. I want to maintain some driveability.

272's would be for you then.

I have seen a xede tuned MR with 280's that almost would idle like stock. otherwise if jestr is tuning your car i would get 280's b/c he is one of the best!

GSC 272s for $450 if you want that extra 30whp all the time, but I'm sure you could have found that from about 5 seconds of searching.

Race gas and 24-25psi will do it immediately with no installation or parts purchase, but it's only as long as the race gas lasts.

I have HKS 272s. I picked up 30WHP and 27WTQ across the powerband with these cams. Odds are, even without a tune, you will still pick up 30WHP with cams.
