Guess my HP!
That's right gentlemen, as the thread stated it's time to play....guess my horse power!!!
The object of the game is to estimate the hp on my 82 highly modified fb. How you say? By comparison of course!
What's the catch? There is no catch all you have to do is play.
What's the prize?...
Once a week I'll be changing the car up on the stand so everyone can have a fair chance at winning!!
This weeks car is a 1982 Mazda Rx-7 Gsl. The mods...
Heat Shield
RB Exaust
Ported RB Intake Manifold
Holley Carb (Forgot to write down the model #)
85 13B Engine with
Large Street Port
3mm Ceramic Apex seals
89 TII Transmission
Race Tuned Timing
Front mount oil cooler
Dual Alternator Pulleys
Commence Raving

I'd say 190 ish. My reasoning?
The 13b wont react as strongly to the streetport as a 12A or an older 13B.
The streetport will net 10-20 to the wheels.
The exhaust about 15.
The intake/carb 50
The pulleys MAYBE 10.

What is race tuned timing?
What do you mean you'll be changing the car every week?

Maybe not the timing or the trans. but the rest sure do. Even if it's a small amount. HP is HP.
The Last dyno was at an est. 181 HP (I forget how much torque) at 6750 rpm with the best hp torque shift time at 6000. Which was 4 months ago.
Since then the owner has upgraded to a 3'' straight exaust set up with no cats and a free flow exaust, claiming an est 190+ hp.
The winners are.... *drum roll*
misterstyx69 and nick1 !!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats on the correct estimation each of you gets bragging right and a cool banner to add to you're sig! (after I finish photo shopping it)

The car was dyno-ed like I stated before. I added a couple of un-nessisary things to throw some people off. ^_^ Yes it's a game, I just thought the forum needed a bit of livelyness other than the regular newb asking quesions or someone posting pics (not saying there's anything wrong with that)
I already have next weeks car lined up so you'll all have toi wait til then. They won't all be fb's!! But most of them will be.
