Re: 3.1l power estimate

not enough to feel a difference thats for shure. Ide say you will pick up mabe like 5 hp. The ypipe is where you loose that 5 hp so the new headers with y pipe should help you get alittle power. Everything else will be for looks. If you seek power buy nitrous or a turbo.

Re: 3.1l power estimate

Ok thanks for the input everyone. I'm still not entirely sure what i'm doing with the car. The engine is knocking so I need to figure out that. as of right now all I have is the dynomax 2.5" catback

Re: 3.1l power estimate

You would be looking at ~121rwhp/147rwtq and running lean.
