Default predict my peak HP / TQ

Not sure if you folks enjoy estimating peak HP/TQ. With:

'02 GT, 7k miles, 5-speed
85mm pro-M MAF
full length densecharger
pro-chamber
everything else stock including cat-back

...what would your guess be for peak HP and TQ and the rear wheel and crank? I'd like to hear your ballparks.

I would say somewhere between 220-230hp and maybe 260ft lbs tq. Give or take a little.

220-230? Those are stock numbers for a 99-04 GT. I would say some where around 250 at the wheels with something like 275. Crank numbers are hard to get because of driveling loss, but figure around 300 at the crank.

I should have made the question more standard. Let's just talk crank HP/TQ and assume baseline = 260. My target is to be a little over 300 and I know that I am not close yet.

Just figure you will make about 325 HP and 350 FT/LBs on a fully bolted on 99+. This is headers, x pipe with no cats, good aftercat, Airfilter, mam, inlet pipe, T/B, plenum, and underdrive pullys

Sounds like a good rule of thumb.

I'll have shorties and H (prochamber)instead of LT and X in the future so maybe I'll fall a little short of that on my bolt-up plans.

It's a carry-over from some old e-mail address that I used to have. I couldn't get the actual name that I wanted on MF. Actually, I registered under 'techme' but the account never ever worked so I got !#$ madd and just created jishead a few months ago. Now I don't want to loose my 65 posts by changing it plus too busy/lazy. On a hundred other systems I am called 'techme' but on MF it says that my account hasn't been activated yet.

you can contact a mod and they can change your name for you (I think) and you won't lose your posts.
