Yay another how much HP thread lol

~243.53rwhp, that's just a guess. Getting it tuned would help a little also.

Gears gets out out the hole hella quicker, plus a tune. to get the number up is gonna require $$$, like H/C/I, LT's. Forced induction is really the best/easiest way to go. 5k may seem steep, but when you add up how much full bolt on's are gonna run, it doesn't seem that bad.
