HP is a function of rpm and torque!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
No, but graphing out a continuation of my dyno line it looks like I would have the rev limit at 9500 rpm to make 10 more hp.
Assuming it keeps increasing
And to not hit the rev limiter everytime, I would have to set it a bit higher than that.
Reddeosol...
How much did ALL of those N/A mods, including labor and dyno time, cost you ???

Lund, I was not trying to be arguementative... I was simply trying to state that increasing wheel HP by 30 is a monumental task when you are talking about a motor that only grosses 125 at the crank !!!
Regardless of the chosen plan, be it Turbo, Supercharger, NOS, or N/A, all of these avenues are expensive and labor intensive. As a matter of fact, making the high power levels with N/A parts that we "FI" guys generate is typically MORE expensive... and the only real advantage that a N/A guy has over a FI guy is when he lifts his hood and says: "Well, all that I got under here is this little 4 cylinder and a few minor bolt-on parts."

It was around $3000 parts & labor, dyno time.
I didn't spend much time hunting down a good deal. (obviously
If I were to do it again, I would have carefully chosen the type of cams I used.
Probably would of cost more though.
