Here is the link: http://www.lmperformance.com/6738/50.html

If this is true than i'm pretty close to 330hp.

If not can't the company get in trouble for false advertisement?

If anything it'd be measured in FWHP vs. RWHP. It might not be false advertising cause they are not saying RWHP.

330*0.85= 280 at the wheels assuming a 15% loss.

I tend to agree it must be fwhp, not rwhp.

Yes that's FWHP not RWHP. Just like their 03/04 Cobra kit is advertised at 575 HP!

So i've never heard of people putting in a new thermostat does that really help? and what about the U/D pulleys? I will have everything else except those two things things oh and the tuner. do those two things though give you a lot of extra horsepower or no?

Even still.....330fwhp is a pretty big claim for basically just pulleys, a tuner and an exhaust system. My guess, is that they're about 30-or-so horsepower too generous in their estimations.

the thermostat helps the engine run a little cooler. you can theoretically add a little more timing then. 160* is too cold tho. stick with 180* or stock 193*. U/D pulleys do make a difference. something like 5-8rwhp. it's a good mod for the N/A people.
