It never fails, I am always asked the horsepower! My generic reply is "about 300". In reality, spending $ on dyno pulls doesn't help me. I catagorize horsepower as "not enough" or "enough" to get the job done. The real variable, and more relevent, is WHERE the power lies in the RPM range. Positive displacement superchargers are excellent for this as they can make power at ANY RPM desired with proper setup. This car has a power band from 2500-6250 with enough torque on hand to blow the 10" goodyears loose at 3000 rpm with a twitch of the throttle. As I am setup for auto-X and see most runs in the 2800-5500 RPM window (3rd gear), righ now it is "enough". "More" wont necessarily make it go faster- but there is plenty more in the motor if needed. :auto:

Just my opinion on HP numbers!
