maybe even 155rwhp.
theres usually an 18-22% loss in power from crank to wheels.

(for a 6 banger) and im hoping that when i do get a high performance air filter it makes it sounds even more like a 8 banger.

yes there is a big loss of power dirty... (sry i already forgot your name lol)
the power has to go throw a trq converter. driveshaft (and if not greased it could lose even more power) and rear end (if the fluid in it is low it could lose more) and it has to go threw gears so it has to go threw alot of stuff befoer it actually hits the ground...
so anyware from 130 rwhp to 170 rwhp is a safe estimate i would say.

thats at the crank.. so no its not misleading you just have to know the difference between crank hp/tq and rwhp and rwtq
look at my dyno sheet in my signature.
that is all rwhp and rwtq...
if we add 18-20% to those numbers its like 330hp and 400tq... but i dont go around telling people i have a 300hp v6 f150 because i dont know exactly what the numbers are at the flywheel.
and besides.. everyoen wants to know what it puts out to the ground
oh also.. a mustang dyno and a dynojet will show different numbers. not sure how off or how different they are.

i guess that is fine with me...as long as im learning stuff to not make me look like a dumb a$$. as long as im making more that 100 im happy, but will definitely have to find some way to compensate...

Sorry for my typo in my other post but you add to your dyno numbers when I said subtract. Sorry

lol... yes the auto will make a dif... maybe not on the dyno well it might im not sure... but if a 5 speed with the same everything you have done to your truck would race he would win... well he would if he knew how to shift... he would win casue he can rev his engine a little higher if he has to to get that extra rpm that might male him win. with a auto you got one rpm it shifts at in a drag race... in a manual you choose when u want it to shift... thats y it is better

put it this way... it would be worht it to do it again. now that i know how to do it, but not knowing how to do it and running into problems and unexpected costs would make it not worth it but like i said.. i know how to build a kit now.
but before i had no idea how to build one..
so if i knew how to build one the first tiem around i could have saved myself about 3 grand maybe even 4 grand.
id say i could do it all over again for less than 5k.
