this is the surprising part for some , its anywhre between 400 to 450 hp, depends what ramp rate was used on the dyno when we tuned it, this sheet is the cheat page, shows the higher of the two readings

Oh wow! I could attribute the low ET to your amazing 60', but trapping 138mph with only 450RWHP?? What's the secret there? :P I guess that's the only part I'm a bit confused on.

haha yeh this is the answer, the cars 2100 pounds , and if you type that combo into most horsepower calculators its about right , i think most of the street cars are around 2800 pounds give or take, hence why you need a hundred more HP to trap that MPH
