Who's got the HP?

I would like to know who has the most HP in this forum and what they have. Has it been dyno'd also?

I think I have around 340 hp. I have a TLP with 225, a DOHC sticker which adds about 40hp. I painted my brake calipers which should give me a gain of about 35. Finally, I put a big powered by honda sticker on my window which pushed me up another 40 hp. Hope this helps

does my bowling ball dash add any hp?

to seriously answer your question though, most people on here have the same mods. a tl-s with intake, exhaust, headers will put out around 300 or so hp at the crank.

the only different mods i've seen is the 3.5L upgrade (i think the guys name is TypeR), or NOS.

wait til the supercharger comes out, then we'll see some real numbers

HP? Dude, everyone knows Jap cars are what HP is all about! Forget big block American engines with blowers and turbos and all that wimpy stuff.

I'd say my TL-S is pumping a solid 600hp w/730lbs of torque, at the front wheels of course! Engine mods include: 400hp NOS wet kit, that's it.

Ran a new Viper yesterday and although I won, my chassis suffered major structural damage. All that HP and torque made the bank end squat so hard, the car almost broke in two! Now I get out of the car through the windows since the doors are jammed shut. So for sure, I have the fastest, quickest, and most power TL-S on this board. No, I cannot send you pics, but watch for the car to be on the cover of NOS monthly. There's a huge article there on why Jap V6's smoke any big block American engines... it's a fact jack, no dog poo poo.

12.8" member, 12.8 ET @ 146mph. Damned FWD, couldn't get out of the hole!!!
