I've never, ever, ever claimed 625hp.  Maybe it was a thread where I was talking about spraying a 150 shot?  That's almost 625rwhp.  I've never said 440hp either.  I've said 448rwhp.  That's what's on my dyno graphs.  The car is actually making closer to 460rwhp now but I still use the 448 number because I have proof of that.  530hp is 450rwhp with an 18% drivetrain loss.  Do you not understand the difference in rwhp and bhp (hp)?  I said 350 for a stock F-body.  I thought it would be fairly obvious that I was using BHP because that's what they are rated at...  I'm at 530.

..... dyno dont mean shit, change rim sizes a few times, and bam the result will change, tyre pressure is a factor too. altitude is another factor. what dyno you use is a factor aswell.

a friend who tunes car prooved this, by doing one dyno run still to the cars max potential then another after changing a few things, results went up by 25%

a tuner can get nearly any result he wants.
the only thing that counts is on the 1/4...

That's believable.  I think yours is limited right around 120-125?  All these guys talking about going 140+ in random little 4 cylinder econoboxes have shit for brains.

going to much faster than 140 i would agree.

my subaru will do about 143 when it hits the rev limiter in 5th gear at 6500 rpms. speedo goes up to 140 but it will pull a little more before it hits the limiter. no sure way of knowing since all i got in my car is the speedo to tell.

if your going faster than low 140ish in a 4 banger its GOTTA be built somehow.

I wasn't driving, but my mom got the 2003 Ford Explorer XLT up to 110~ mph
It's in my profile
Was fucking crazy.

My dad a bit back ago took a 2001 Ford Explorer V8 XLT up to 80, didn't feel like going much faster though, as that's a very topheavy suv.
