Kelsey this is he second one I have owned. And bean you where right. It is not 300fwhp it is 300 at the flywheel . Dispute it all you want.
specs are as followed
started out with 220 hp from the factory.
Had motor completely Done to handle Supercharging at a local shop. including new pistons, crank, head, etc.
at that time had the following added to it
Highflow catback system with custom Y-Pipe
80 mm maff sensor
68 mm throttle boby
lightweight underdrive pullies
ExtrudeHoned Intake Runners
190 LPH Fuel Pump
LPM
BigBore Butterflies
Street HYPERformance Camshaft Kit
This alone was at least a 50hp 235 ft lbs TQ according to Sho Shop where the items where purchaced.
so even stopping here we are at 275 from stock form . This is not including what was done to the block
OH BUT WHAT THERES MORE...............Can you say nitrous???
So now if I concider a Supercharger and decide to go with the same company I purchased the above mentioned items. here is what I can expect with there Stage 1 kit.
Stage 1 kit will produce 355–360 HP and 290ft.lbs. of TQ at the wheels. This brings it up to 400hp at the flywheel ?
I would also like to add IM not some kid dreaming up a car I would love to own . I have owned everything from your basic highshool kids car to vettes and A F355 kit car with a 325 hp V8 in the back. When I decide what route I am going next I will be glad to get it on a dyno for all to see.
Do A google search on performance SHOs or check out some sites like shoforum.com or shotimes.com if you still dont belive. WHere are many people on this site who are pushing over 300 with there V6 SHO
It looks like alot of mods but minus the block work alot of the other items are bolt-ons
Thanks and have a great day
