Default New Purchase '98 GT

Just bought a '98 GT and was wondering what track times and horsepower numbers i should be expecting. The car has 74kon the clock. Only modsare CAI, Off Road X-Pipe, Pypes Catback, and Steeda Tri-Ax. I was thinking around 220whp and 14.5

If I had to guess,,,,,,I would say about 190 RWHP and Low 15s to High 14s

The Pre PI 4.6s are not too good out the box and need ALOT of help to make decent power.

Later and Congrats......

Using the calculation of ET * 1.55 That is roughly 15.1 (this calculation is not DEAD on but off by about 1-3 tenths)

Not bad for a BONER Auto [8D]

Wasnt as bad as I had thought watching other sn95's that were there. I'm still debating whether i should go get a slip with just the PI intake and Cams or wait for my 4.10's...kinda curious how much those items helped. I honestly think I lost all my traction and would pull almost the same time...0-60 is only .1 better because no matter what I'm spinning now.
