Potential 420a hp

[NewClipse96]

Idk if theres a post for this already or not but im just curious. In yalls opinions, what do you guys think the top hp would be for a N/T 420a with the basic mods like CAI, cam and gears, head work, header back exhaust, jeep TB, etc.?! Just curious and thanks for yalls in put DSM all the way

haha nice my bad man got lazy but is there a post on this with an actual hp number?!

Unlikely. In all honesty you won't gain a whole lot by bolting on stuff to a 420a. The real potential is in the ECU- You'd need something like Megasquirt to tune the car and unlock the potential of those mods. I actually think it'd be a waste to get all of those things and keep the stock ECU.

No probably not exact, but you should be able to find a ballpark thread. They seem to make about 160hp with bolt ons. But every car is different and altitude and all that will effect things.

Pretty depressing when I saw it especially since it comes to about $300 per hp, using the most popular name brands out. However I got a good laugh when they said "Conclusion As you can see, there is definitely power to be made from the 420A motor"
