just wondering how much horsepower my 88lx is putting to the pavement??
mods include, bbk fenderwell intake,underdrive pulley's,bbk equal length headers,bbk offroad xpipe,2 chamber flowmaster,c&l 73mm mas w/ mas conversion,70mm ppthrottle body and egr,trickflow street heat upper and lower intake,24# injectors,smog eliminated.... i hoping at least 250 rwhp.. any help thanx... what about 1/4 mile times w/ drag radials??
 
Until you do something about the heads, you won't see over the mid-low 200's. If you did just heads, you would be looking at high 200's and with a decent cam you would be putting down 300. You have everything else.

You could lose the 24lb injectors, they'll be more than you need at this point. Then, you could either keep the stock MAF, or pick up one for a 94-95 GT/Cobra. The 70mm throttlebody on a stock engine is also overkill, but that's a debate I want no part of, so if you already have it, keep it, it won't do any harm. I'd bet with those mods, you'd see 220-230 HP tops at the wheels.
