First time I went to the dyno and had a k&n panel filter, removed intake silencer, and magnaflow catback, I made 197whp and 265wtq.
Now I have added some ford underdrive pulleys, c&l 76mm maf and intake tube, offroad x pipe. What should this put me at realistically? I just don't want to be disappointed
Thanks
Jason

215-220 or so, I cant see gaining over 40 rwhp with an off road pipe, meter and pulleys.

For pullies, I give you nothing that's readable on a dyno.

My guess... 207 HP 275 TQ largely due to the X

I don't see you getting more than 10 out of that.

I was never able to get a baseline dyno for my car.
But with pullies, O/R H and an old rusty catback my car made 220rwhp and 285rwtq on a Dynojet.
The car was running pig rich at 11:1
