i know you guys get sick of seeing this but i gotta ask, how much horsepower do you guys think ive got, my best time on the 1/4 is 14.74 at 93.7, and could i beat a 02 Mustang GT i beat 1 but i think he missed a gear but he said he didnt so i dont kno

33boggers

not to be a smart as BUT not enough. The more you get the more you want. I haven't got my car back yet but I think I should have around 300rwhp. (A car in 5.0 mag has the same mods as I do and that is what they got) And I am already looking into 100 shot of NO2. my best is 13.78, hopeing for 12.50 and juiced 11 something

i know i dont have enough, i was just wandering what i have now

Quik

well i went with the calculator and 3350 lbs that was with you in it.....heres your results

Your engine is making approximately 183.70 HP at the wheels, and about 216.77 HP at the flywheel.

Quik

also if i went with less weight then your car would make less power

jrxs_racer

well i just went and checked the gross weight is 4198 lbs isnt that what you go by

Quik

gvw is maximum weight it would weigh with 4 ppl, full gas, full interior, full hatch/trunk full of parts, all fluids toped off

most ppl think thats the weight but it really isnt. its usally about 1000lbs less then teh gvw for a cars weight. so your about 3200 with out you in the car and etc. so i went with 3350. saying your about 150 in weight

jrxs_racer

dam your good that is exactly what i weight, well i thought i had more power than that, looks like suspension is the next upgrade im hope to put it in the 13s now

Quik

yep ive been told that many times

also remember that is a calculation and not actual numbers since weather does play a role in power figures along with track times

but it gets you in the ball park

so the best thing would be just put it on a chassis dyno then
