Truthfully, not much more than stock. Maybe 20hp more than stock. Take it to the track and weigh the car with you in it. That way you'll be alble to find out. Or get it dyno'd.

About 180-190 probably. Thats my guess, it really depends on the milage/condition of your engine too. My stuff probably just put me back to stock HP levels cause i'm at 124K now and burning a tiny bit of oil.

Yah, I'd say about 190-195 at the crank, since you're running with no muffler...(and assuming everything is tuned up all happy)

Yeah, I'll have to agree with the range everyone is putting his car at. He probably has 185-190 horsepower.

Well, he does have that huge cowl hood, and tall filter. He's just not sucking in hot air like some of us. So I change my prediction to 195-200 horsepower.

Yeah, that cowl and air element does an engine good on air. But I agree, it depends on the condition of the engine in the first place. My car has 97k but it has already lost some power since I bought it.

a tad more than me. I say I have 190. You have no muffler, I put a flowmaster on. You have a cowl hood, I have an open Formula hood. We both have K&Ns.

What gears and tranny do you have? How much does the car weigh? Have you done any suspension mods? What tires? What will the temp and humidity be? Lots of things can affect quarter mile times.
