has anyone with similiar mods dyno'ed their car? or anyone in the know care to make a realistic hp estimate for my car?
i have the following mods
1.earthing kit
2.crawford plenum
3.injen exuast
4.cat pipes (to be installed within a few days)
5.aem intake
i know i need to put it on a dyno but that is being saved for after the headers and nos. i was just curiouse to see what you guys would think. by the way i got into a fender bender last night and although it wasn't terrible i am sure there is a few dollars in dammage. need a nose and i hope that is where the damage ends so wish me luck! not to mention i was registered for the show in pensilvania on sat...... kiss that goodbye!!!! this sucks!!! peace

 

25-40ish hp top end

 

The plenum, less restrictive exhaust and cat pipes are a VERY potent combination

 

potent combo? yes i think so. i have a friend with a stock z and also in comparison to other cars(belonging to friends) i race on a reg basis from stock to now tell me exactly what i think. that the car shows a huge difference in performance. i walk stock z's and other cars i could hang equally with back when i was stock easily now. i would guess at least .3-.5 tenths quiker in the quarter and although i do consider myself a good driver in this car i would expect a mid to high 13 at the track or i would be very dissapionted. i have no problem walking most mustangs and fbodies to the piont i feel confident when i pull alongside one, but as always there are those that have walked if not slaughtered me. i also have hung with the recent m3's and evo's but never had a real good line up but feel i would hang with if not walk them somewhat if i had a good run with one. do you think this is a realistic time at this point?

 

If a stock Z can break into a 13.9, with your current mods I think you can realistically see mid 13's. You should try it with street tires and slicks to see what the diff makes if you have a chance! If I could run a 13.9 up here that would be like a 12.8 @ sea level. But that probably wont happen any time soon lol
