RE: max HP from all bolt ons?
i thought boss did hit the dyno a while ago? maybe not. Whatever his numbers are now they would be considerably higher than most on the same dyno, same conditions. His trap speed is what a 97 now? That's DAMN high for the crazy traction his car gets. With street tires he would probably be trapping 98-99 which is around what a new edge gt traps. very quick.

dont quote me, as i havent put my car on the dyno yet, but have read from others that you could see 3-5 hp/tq gain when comparing a custom 91/93 tune vs. an 87 canned tune. possibly a bit more, not sure though.

Hey steelstang the screamin demon coils and live wire setup, how would that effect the car? Casue i was looking at that the other day and just wondered if you had it or if any one has it what are the gains and can you feel it and any other pros and cons about it!
thanks guys

Well Boss did hit the Dyno almost as the car sits now ( the old car but same set up and lighter that the current edition is) and he hit a whopping....193!!!!It is Bosses set up!Like I said earlier it isn't about a number. For those who seen my car, driven my car or been in my car did it feel as if it only launched at 205RWHP probably not but that is what it was. It isn't about a NUMBER its about drivability,
And Sancho no that was not in reference to you

Another good post Ron. A dyno's primary purpose is to prepare the car for the street/track. Dyno numbers are a nice gauge, but not the be all end all. My car always dyno'd low, but it always made me happy with the ET's it produced.
Same can be said for road coars and autox'rs.
