WTF does Sirius satelite radio have to do with power? LOL

Anyway i'd venture to say you are pushing a little over 250 to the wheels.

Re: Will someone guestimate my horsepower output?

only hp mods i see are the catback exhaust and the k&n filter. So I'd guess you'd have about 235rwhp or so since you have an automatic...

dude...i hit 14 flat bone stock. and i did it at 100 mph. just a catback, CAI and HPP3 got me somewhere in the 13.5 range.

any way, i'd safely assume somewhere between 275 and 290 RWHP

I think around 240-245. Definitely headers would be good a good thing as well as 1.6 RR's.

haha i meant 240-245 you retards And whomever said he'd make 275-290rwhp in a LT1 AUTO with MINOR bolt ons and no headers is just plain confused.

Re: Will someone guestimate my horsepower output?

I'd say 235, thats not being mean, just from what I have seen in person.

The lt1 is still a fun motor, but it usally makes numbers that are, down to earth.

With m6 and long tubes I only made @ 270, so ya its a tough battle.
(pos still won't hit 400 for me

If you want to compare some numbers, I am pushing 350 with a bunch of sh*t on my engine.

Re: Will someone guestimate my horsepower output?

Well since our mod lists are about the same length, you can look in my sig for HP #'s to get an estimate of what you're putting down.
