Default What's my HP?

I haven't done much yet so I've yet to put her on a dyno. But so far I have:

C&L Racer Intake
93 Octane Tune from Brenspeed
FRPP (Borla?) Axle Backs
4:10's

what kinda HP do you think I have? i know it cant be much more than stock. Also, what do you think ill have after i install my ARH longtubes with offroad H pipe?

id have to agree with probably around 290rwhp the gears dont add any hp theyre just a torque multiplier pretty much although with higher gears it will feel like you've added about 50 to 75hp to the car

Gears and stingers add none and maybe take some away actually, so the intake and tune should be 290 or so and LT with a new midpipe should put you over 300 and maybe even 310

I have heard people say the exhaust can take away power. how?.......I mean all these performance axle backs claim more power?

I just had my car dyno'd after my mods and mine are real similar to yours. I'm using 91 octane tune, and I have stock gears. my RWHP is 291 and torque is 302. the gears won't make more horses but it will shorten the power curves and give you the horsepower increase earlier.

the axle upgrade makes a huge difference IMO exp racing, nice to get out front a little quicker.
