200hp?

[aet]

what will need to be done to get the old spec v up to 200 or so hp?
is 200 the upper limit without a turbo or supercharger?

I think with an intake and exhaust/header it may be possible to exceed 190. Nitrous will put you over 200. As for the upper limit, that we will have to see!!!:flash:

Are you talking at the wheels or the flywheel??? Cause not to shed some rain on this but the car dyno's in at 141hp to the wheels,and there's no way that a header,exhaust, and inake is gonna bring you to 190hp....

I personally dynoed mine about two weeks ago. The horsepower to the wheels is about 140-145, torque is 153-155. My results were.... max horsepower to the wheels 144, torque was 155. Soon as I find out how to scan the damn thing I will post it up.:alien:

I am talking flywheel HP. Could be interesting getting 200+ to the pavement. But not impossible!!

You do realize dynos and actual driving performance differ. When your doing a dyno, you car is just sitting there, totally deprived of air. Even with a raised roof, it does not compare to the air flow when driving.

Any respected dyno-shop will have high powered fans placed in front of the car to simulate the normal driving experience....
Dynos are very accurate and very respected.
