Can anyone tell me approximately how much horsepower I'd be putting out of a 96 RS with the following mods: AEM cold air, high flow throttle body, throttle body spacer, Pacesetter headers, high-flow cat-converter, high flow muffler. I want to know how much horsepower this would make so I know if its worth it or not to go this route instead of turbo charging. Thanks.
 
u might want to add alot to ure mod list if u want to make a n/t fast

p.s. jayden1 where u giving him crank or wheel hp?
 
Well considering the 420A is already at 140 from the start...You are probably looking at around 155-160 BHP. Keep in mind that is BHP not WHP, that 140 mark the 420A puts down from the start is a BHP reading, not WHP. So in all actuality u may only be putting down around 135-140 to the WHEELS after those mods. :dsm:
 
WHAT!? LOL ure only giving 5hp for the mods he mentioned?

EDIT: jaktheripper if im gonna help ya out u gotta research ure shit. Pacesetter, well imma let u find out about that one ureself :laugh: , if ure gonna get a hi-flow cat and muffler y dont u just get the cat0back? :confused: , tb spacer is garbage from what i hear, :dsm:

nah, decide what kinda of power you want out of your car first. If you want serious power out of the 420a then save your money for a turbo kit. If you just want a faster car then go with the mods listed above.
 
hehe, yea im not looking for an insane amount of hp. I am just looking for mods i listed above, so i can own other ppl (not ALL but quite a few)
 
oh if u want a basic tuning guide u can try the one on this forum, or go to www.2gnt.com under sections n under stages go to power stages, hope this helps
