about how much h/p from removing smog?
Not enough to be of any consequence...if you're getting creamed now, you'll still be getting creamed, just smogging up the atmosphere more. Figure about 5hp from parasitic loss turning the smog pump and a little reduced backpressure.

I dont know about how much hp, but i can not change the plugs on my tpi all form the top now. I took out the smog, and the a/c.
It really cleaned everything up, I have room to work now.
Getting rid of the cats on a car with alot of miles sure will help.
