How many ponies will I gain?

dallas2002GT · Feb 3, 2006

I ordered BBK L/T's, BBK x with cats, and magnaflow magnapacks.
I have to wait till the end of the month so I can get my exhaust and 3.73's gears installed at the same time. They are going to fix my one wheel burnout problem as well at the same time.

So how much rwhp do you think I will gain from the exhaust? I dynoed at 227rwhp/262trq bone stock back in September 05. I have only added my 17x10.5 dd's with Nitto 315/35/17 dr's since then.

sorry, my e-dyno is broke

well exhaust usally add in the neighborhood of 20-30 ponies. btw 3.73's won't fix your 1 wheel peal issue. You need to rebuild the clutch pack part of your rear end to fix that. Another thing you maybe interested to know is that by adding more rotating mass ie bigger rims and wheels you will actually lose rwhp. your car will make more poines running 15 inch rims then with 18's. this also happens when people put bigger discs on a car. more rotating mass so lose of power.

Ya, I ment there going to fix that problem as well as putting the gears on. As far as the bigger wheels, I was told the small hp loss wouldnt be that noticable. If I did lose any I cant really tell.

No wonder why StangNet is a joke amongst the Mustang websites/forums - look at Tom, Founding Member - Wow Tom, another zinger. You are just full of witty remarks. What exactly is your role as a 'founding member'?

the98stang · Feb 3, 2006

What gains would you guys estimate for just an X/H pipe with cat back exhaust (no headers)? 15-20 WHP?

01Steeda · Feb 3, 2006

prolly 10-12.. headers are where the most gain is gonna be.

at least thats what i have gathered.

Disrespecting Tomustang really f'n pisses me off

What Tom was trying to say is that playing the "how much HP will _____ get me" is a bullshiot game and he did not feel like playing tonight.

Also, Founding Member status is automatic for anyone who has been around for over four years and who has not pissed off the admins.

And lastly, ain't NO F'N WAY that StangNet is "a joke amongst the Mustang websites/forums".

I don't like to hide behind numbers, but aren't there something like 90,000 members? I think SN is doing good.

On the purely technical side of things, I would place my trust more in MD. However, it takes like 10 years to get a response, if you get one, and there is no fun and cool community like here :SNSign:

I was looking for answers from people that have already done complete exhaust or knows someone that has and knows what kinda numbers they received! I wasen't looking to play the ("how much HP will _____ get me" is a bullshiot game) So as far as I am concerend if you leave smart remarks you will get smart replies.

It was not really so much about your post in particular. It was about the millions of e-dyno posts. There is no need for you to be offended and I apologize if I offended you. I would suggest however that a search would have yielded the answers which you seek. Also, board members like Tomustang who spend a great deal of time on this board answering people's questions for free sometimes get frustrated. I am sure you can understand that...

From the longtubes, X, and cat back, I'd say close to 25 rwhp. Low of 20. (Over stock).
