According to the calculater I'm puttting down b/w 180-188hp down at the wheels. To bad I can't do that on the dyno. I've weighed my car at the track in Houston with me in and it weighs b/w 3,315 to 3,345lbs. My trap speeds normally range between 87-89mph.

There are a number of "these" calculators out there and they need to make a number of assumptions. So, they are "OK" to get an idea of what is going on, but they don't take into account:
1. Shape of the HP/Torque curve.
2. Gearing
3. FWD vs. RWD (I found a link to one, but lost it )
4. Wheel weight
5. Traction
NHRA calc links (you will find more NHRA links from the menus)...
