No guessing...stock 5spd car 225FWHP will dyno mid 180's to low 190's in stock form...add exhaust 10-15hp,add intake 10hp,5-10 for TB and maf...so #210 if she's running well. Unfortunately the stock TB and intake are not significant restrictions on our cars...the heads are. Once the heads are upgraded then the intake, maf,and TB become restrictive

its BHP, not FWHP.... please dont confuse the two

I however agree.. ~210
