What could you expect from these mods on a stock 2.4 (ld9)

1.) Titanium rods.

2.) 11:1 forged pistons

3.) .40 cylinder over bore

4.) Stainless Steel 1mm oversize valves

5.) 2.3 oil pump swap

6.) secret cams

7.) 2.5" Stainless exhaust with OBX 4-1 Header

8.) MSD Ignition system with Platinum Plugs

9.) running half 93 Petroluem and half e85

Those are mild cams for that high of compression. If you have the the head ported pretty much perfectly still don't expect anymore than 180hp. For that high of compression I'd running some W41 sticks and the DCSports 4-2-1 header.

I think with all of that you would need a good tune really badly. With a good tune, you could probably see 180-190hp.

Titanium rods are FAAAAARRRRRRR from necessary with a street engine. The weight saving isn't worth the cost unless you are going full race. Stick with the tried and true 4340 Forged rods. Also, if you plan on running e85, don't waste your time with secret cams. I wouldn't go any smaller than w41's.
