With those mods I would say you have about 160 hp, and thats implying that your car is running like new

Try 155 or so. You gain like 2-3 hp from your intake, 2.5 inch exhaust gain you 5-10 the most

Assuming your car is running like new(146HP), then I'd say you're probably running about 150-155HP at the flywheel. Is your 2.5" exhaust just a catback? If so, you could have more like 160-165.

Nice to see someone who knows what they are talking about and doesn't read the side of the box to predict HP #'s.

At most 150 - 160 @ the motor or 130 -135 @ the wheels.

Hey I am being optomistic I really don't know what the 2.5" exhaust really means. If he has headers & no cats he should be getting more than 130rwhp I would hope.

Blake has dyno results of a cone filter. It only adds 1rwhp. Better than nothing though.

As far as hp goes....i'd say...less than 500rwhp, but more than 100rwhp. If you would like anymore info, i'll have to charge you a consoltation fee. CJ
