Not enough information (cam spec's, head size, compression ratio,) amazing how people want you to guess without knowing these things but throw in what kind of shifter the car has. LMAO!!

jujuwat, got a bit of advice for you, dont talk **** to the people trying to help you. some of these guys have more intelligence in their pinky finger then you will ever have when it comes to cars, just chill and put up the info people ask for so they can help you...

Im not gonna turn this into a pissing contest but port is right, you gotta give specs in order to get the answer you are looking for. You cant say, "I have a car, how much HP do I have?"
