Guess my HP game (w/ prizes)!! Options

[boosted_K2]

well because over the weekend i ran into a large boost leak problem, and dont have time to troubleshoot it myself, i was forced to bring my car down to novi this morning and have the good people at godspeed work on it. I am also getting a leakdown and compression test done on the car, the owner also suggested i get a base dyno done, so i agreed.

so here we go for you so called 3sgte gurus, guess the peak HP i will make! and for a tie breaker also guess peak torque.

winner gets a copy of the dyno and a nice picture of the car... if someone can guess the exact HP i will also throw in a slightly used copy of Need For Speed Underground 2 for PS2.

guessing will be closed april 28th at noon (eastern standard time )!! good luck 1 guess per person!

a copy of the dyno graph chart and an 8.5X11 autocross picture which will be taken next weekend at either our kettering event or the Detroit-SCCA event , if the HP number had been guessed dead on, then you would have won a copy of NFS:U2 for PS2.

as for another update i picked up the car today and talked with dan some more. he helped me out with a few ideas and it looks like i will first be getting a new Greddy boost gauge (autometer gauges = teh suck), a new IC (possably a GT-4 WAIC... or a Greddy SMIC if i have less incentive than to take on the WAIC project), and a hydra-nemesis EMS system which will be installed and tuned by him... that right there should put me around the 260-265ish range, and after upgrading fuel components and raising boost, i should be flirting with the 300 mark after more tuning.

after finally being able to see my graphs, i made 197.8 HP and 215.4 Ft. Lbs. the HP number would have been larger had i not had a very rich condition at approx. 4250-4750 RPM. equates to about a 15 HP loss total that could be regained through a SAFC-II and a FPR... right now i dont think the 15 HP is worth the cash instead im just going to save up for the new IC and EMS and regain that HP that way.

Good plan on the EMS. I am getting one as well.

As for the prizes, I don't have a PS2 anyway (or time to play ftm). Just post the dyno chart and that will be good enough for that. As for the picture, I will take a 8 x 10 color glossy of something hot at the event besides a car....surprise me.
