Yeah the Mast allows you to keep the VVT. Speartech and the GM one that I mentioned don't. I've been pricing it out and with the GM ECU, it's quite a bit cheaper to delete the VVT (probably close to $1000 cheaper). I'm trying to compare the two ECU in case I decide to ditch the VVT, which is the way I'm leaning right now. The Mast set up is more expensive than both of the ones that I mentioned.
The Mast set up is around $2500 for a WBO2 performance package which includes the ECU, a cam and springs. This would put me around 530hp. I would still need to get some water pump spacers which are $300 from Mast. I would also need to buy a DBW pedal.
If I delete the VVT, I can get a cam, timing chain, springs, push rods, timing cover with cam position sensor with harness and ARP bolts for $810 from Texas Speed. Their cams show close to 560hp.
Then I would need to get an ECU and the two that I've looked at Speartech and the GM L376/480hp one. DBW pedals are included with both.
