Did you tune it or just throw it on there to see what it makes? Put a 2.76" pulley on it and get it tuned. Should put down 455-475rwhp after a pulley and exhaust. I don't think id sweat too much if you haven't tuned it yet. Bone stock they make on average 360 rwhp. So you picked up around 20 without a tune.

the torque seems quite low, hp seems ok with the fact that it's not tuned. get a handheld and you'll pick up some nice numbers, or throw a pulley on it too and be really happy.

No it does not have a tune,

The 328 seems kinda low, for catback and intake.
I was hopping there may be something that could be done without tunning

you can blow the motor without tuning...thats something ;-D

HP is good, tq is a bit low...but thats easily remedied...wait until you can afford a tune before you do too much more.
