Default Need info

I haven't been to the dyno yet so I'm looking for some info. I got a 4.0 with JBA shorties, Magnaflow duals, Steeda CAI, and a Preditor tuner, I was wondering how many horses I could be putting on the wheels. Any ideas would be great.

If you have an automatic I'm guessing you'll be right around 200RWHP. With a manual, maybe 220.

With a pred and the mods listed, I'm guessing with an auto around 193RWHP, and with a manual around 203-205RWHP. I have yet to see a tuner put out some good numbers with the preditors unless its a Vortech. I used to have a Diablo and switched to a SCT XCAL2 for this reason. Not trying to bash, just trying to set your expectations when you get a dyno. The canned pred. tunes are not very good, expecially for an auto. My TQ curve was all over the place with the pred. If you hit 200 then that would be awesome.

I've been following a lot of these threads about mods and horses and bear with me if this is a stupid question but...

The tech spec about the v6 having 210hp isn't at the wheel??? So how many horses does a stock 6 have at the wheels?

The 210hp rating is at the wheel... just not the wheel you're thinking of... it's at the flywheel. Just about anytime a manufacturer spews out hp numbers, they mean it's at the flywheel.

I was thinking that flywheel was probably the correct term but -again- didn't want to look too stupid

Stock, I think our auto's get around 170hp to the rear wheels, give or take a few hp.

She's a manual so that should help out the numbers. I figured it was around 210 to the wheels, but it's not profesionally(?) tuned. I might switch over to SCT later on, after I get the S/C. Thanks for the replies!
