A helluva lot more than 375. But horsepower don't mean crap if you can't get the wheels to stick to the ground.

well its a limited production "sports" truck and its not very sporty when it comes to the power side of things. .97 skidpad but only 250 hp i think. and everybody on the XR forum has done all i can think of. its the only way i can think of to set my truck out as truly one of a kind...
