A grand for what it says it should have stock? Iono, but I bet the sound it makes is worth every cent.

Er...297 RWHP with those mods is awesome, I'd say it 1K very well invested.

300 hp number is not "rear wheel". Dyno's check rear wheel numbers.

For an automatic around 250 rwhp is the starting point, for manual 260. Those of course are going to vary according to dyno's, conditions, etc.

Suffice it to say the rear wheel number will be lower then the advertised crank number.

Having said all that.....yeah those are good numbers for that investment! I'd be happy![sm=happybounce.gif]

His said 297 rear wheel horsepower is roughly equivalent to 340 brake horsepower. So the tune and x-pipe alone gave him roughly 40 more bhp.
