Does anyone know exactly how much hp a 2000 3.8 has??

 

If your asking how much a stock 99-00 Mustang V6 make to the wheels, then your loking at about 160-170 RWHP I'm not sure about TQ but they should be making anywhere from 190-200 TQ. Someone want to clarify this for me? I plan to dyno my car whenI feel like its worth knowing [sm=gobble.gif]

here are the Flywheel numbers

Horsepower 190 @ 5250 rpm
Torque 220 @ 2750 rpm

 

close numbers. depending on if it is an automatic transmission or a manual will determine actual RW numbers. automatics lose more power on the way to the wheels than manuals do. subtract 15% or so from what is cranked out and you will get an estimate of RW numbers.

 

i have a 2000 v6 myself and it just so happens to be atlantic blue lol. any way on the horse power question the "book" (fords mustang lineup 99-04) a stock 3.8L v6 mustang gets 193 horses and 225 ft lbs of torque hope i was of some help

 

+1 to what they said.

My answer would be "not enough"

lol.

I have a v8 in my future, I assure you.

 

Don't we all? [sm=guilty.gif]

EDIT I use to drive a Northstar V8 powered Cadillac STS (hence the name 'caddstang')

...so that must mean i will have a V12 in my future

 

01-04 mustangs have 3 more hp than 99-00. differences include different crank pulley design and minor intake changes.

99-00 v6= 190hp, 01-04 v6= 193hp at the flywheel. you lose hp to the wheels through the drive line.

 

i bet they all still put down pretty much the same exact RW numbers though.

 

yea i know. just letting him know the "exact" numbers. plus, they arent all exactly the same anyway. some are factory freaks and others suck *****
