Hi everyone:

 

Seems like a wide variance in gu-estimates. How will we ever know who is right or who is even remotely close to right? Since I cannot be proven wrong I will say removing the key probably added ten horsepower all by itself.

 

Do I hear 150? Going once... going twice... ? :D

Hi all:

 

I think if you are too cheap for a dyno then you "dunno". Bottom-line it doesn't really matter unless you're in an engine building (only) contest. Otherwise so many other things have to be factored in. Often these are collectively referred to as "driving ability".

 

Just have fun and enjoy your 'Shee until the tree huggers take them from our oily, wrench-callused hands.

 

 

Regards,

Bill

What the hell are you thinking? With his set up he can't have anything more than 22,650 horsepower. Maybe if he had a shiny booste bottle he could have 23,000 plus, but quit blowing smoke up his ass.
