Someone want to guestimate HP number for me?

I am always asked "How much HP are you pumping out on that thing?" and my response is always MMMM?? 3something?. I have Cat back mid pipe down pipe intake and run 12psi max on the pfs pmc. Stock intercooler is limiting me right now. Any guestimated numbers would be fine. Thanks

It all boils down to compression. If its high then I'd say 310ish at 12psi of boost. If its just ok compression I'd say 290ish.

WIth your mods I ran a 12.3 on drag radials with a very low mileage stock motor that had like new compression. That would indicate around 315-320rwhp, I was running right between 12 and 13 psi ob boost and it was a cool day (60ish)

Maybe that will give you a better idea. Also the normal people dont realize that 300RWhp is not the same as 300hp quoted in a mag. Depending on who I'm talking to I might quote flywheel hp to the compare it better.

Later,
STEPHEN

Well since you would have to explain to most people what wheel HP is, just say about 350 flywheel of course but they dont need to know that.
